 Replying to [comment:10 peaceablewhale]:
 > I think the trailing slash is always required:

 No it's not. Infact WordPress enforces and will remove the trailing slash
 from post URLs if you opt not to have one in your structure at Settings ->
 Permalinks. That is the whole purpose of `user_trailingslashit()` (it'll
 only add one if your permalink structure has one).

 However this may not be the case for the root of your blog. I'm not sure
 if the redirect from `http://example.com/blog` to
 `http://example.com/blog/` is being done by WordPress or the HTTPD (I
 assume the latter).

 `get_tag_feed_link()` should definitely include a trailing slash if your
 permalink structure has one, but I'm not sure if it should or not if your
 structure doesn't.
