Comment (by iandunn):

 Ok, I see your point about the backwards-compatibility issues. Maybe the
 best way forward would be to have wp_redirect() accept a bool parameter to
 determine whether or not it redirects, and have it be false by default.
 Then, create a new function like wp_redirect_exit(), which calls
 wp_redirect( true ), and then promote wp_redirect_exit() on the Codex and
 elsewhere as the function that plugins/themes should be using unless they
 actually need to continue processing. I can create a ticket for that if
 you think it's a good idea.
