 I've found that get_terms is not outputting terms which have a count of 0
 in term_taxonomy. This can be a problem for newly created categories,
 causing them to be lost in the database if they're not added to a post
 immediately. Essentially, there is no way to display terms which are not
 assigned to objects, allowing for numerous orphaned terms in the database.

 To recreate:

 - Create a new category on a post
 - Uncheck the category
 - Save the post
 - Category is missing, however database still shows the category, but
 there is no way to access it
