Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 hehe, as I wrote, it's "in case we want to keep $_REQUEST with the same
 data all along" (which I don't think we do either).

 @hakre: ticket is not invalid, and not slashing $_REQUEST can introduce
 potential security issues if a plugin uses it expecting it's always
 slashed.
