Comment (by tellyworth):

 Since [34630], the behaviour of  `'container' => ''` has changed.

 Previously it would remove the container. Now it results in a tag with an
 empty element:


 {{{

                                 < class="menu clear-fix">
 }}}


 Note that the empty string param is explicitly given in the docs as an
 example
 http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu#Removing_the_Navigation_Container:

 {{{#!php
 <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container' => '' ) ); ?>
 }}}

 I'm not entirely sure what the intention is in this case, but this seems
 like a regression, and the behaviour doesn't match the docs.
