 According to the
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_trim_excerpt Docs], the
 {{{$text}}} param is required but "if set to empty an excerpt is
 generated."

 Calling {{{wp_trim_excerpt();}}} (i.e. without the param) works, but
 throws a Warning.

 It makes sense to default the {{{$text}}} param to empty and make it
 optional.
