Comment:

 This wasn't in fact fixed in #10710. An endpoint without a value is still
 indistinguishable from no endpoint. All #10710 done was to explicitly set
 all query vars to an empty string.

 `example.com/test/` and `example.com/` both give us query_vars[test]=!''
 (an empty string), making them indistinguishable.

 Additionally, the inline doc for `add_rewrite_endpoint()` is misleading as
 it states:

 > Add an endpoint, like /trackback/.

 which suggests endpoints without values are possible.
