Comment (by markjaquith):

 Well ... except for this ticket! [16832] went in after the milestone was
 changed, and it breaks the way people were using get_term_link() (which
 apparently wasn't documented sufficiently to justify breaking these uses).
 This seems like a regression to me.

 Our term API is horrible, but it's what we have. We can do a nice object-
 oriented API for a future version of WP that makes people be explicit
 about whether they're asking for a term by name, slug, ID, etc. But until
 then, we should avoid breaking our existing API.
