Comment:

 > IMHO it should return false or WP_Error in case of erro

 The output of the function has been defined as such for a long time, thats
 what its purpose is. Its a Function for theme developers, If they ask for
 a string, they get a string, if they ask for an array, They get an array,
 Simple as that.

 Can we please keep future comments related to the return of the said
 functions to the other ticket - #10803? Keep this ticket on topic for
 adding a default output.
