Comment (by Master Jake):

 Ah, I hadn't bothered actually looking at the wp_parse_args implementation
 yet, but it does make since with the whole "query strings can't be
 recursive" ordeal.

 I thought maybe PHP's [http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-merge-
 recursive.php array_merge_recursive()] function would take care of this,
 but it seems it has an unexpected result (from a user of wp_parse_arg's
 perspective) of not overwriting previous keys, but instead creating a new
 array with the values from the previous and new key and using that array
 as the new value.
