Comment (by mdawaffe):

 I have the following scenario.

 A multisite user who is not a member of http://blog.multisite.com/ is sent
 to http://blog.multisite.com/wp-
 login.php?redirect_to=http://blog.multisite.com/foo/.

 Since the user is not a member of http://blog.multisite.com/, though, the
 user has no read cap.  My redirect_to parameter is ignored and the user is
 sent to user_admin_url().

 A sort of strange scenario, I know.  Be that as it may, I believe these
 wp-login.php redirect_to conditionals are meant to prevent an unauthorized
 user from being redirected to an *admin* url that he/she doesn't have
 access to.  They shouldn't prevent the user from going to a blog URL.
