Comment:

 Thanks for the report, m1au. Sorry you didn't get a response sooner.

 The code in question (in `wp-login.php`) only handles the redirect
 location after a user logs in. It doesn't affect how rewrite rules behave.
 Additionally, rewrite rules aren't used for admin area URLs unless you're
 running Multisite.

 The lack of a trailing slash here is so that any value of
 `$_REQUEST['redirect_to']` that contains `wp-admin` gets matched, and the
 scheme of the redirect gets set to `https`.

 If you're having problems with rewrite rules I would recommend
 [https://wordpress.org/support/ opening a support forum thread] with some
 more details of your site's configuration and exactly what problem you're
 seeing.
