 big issue.

 Why? I don’t see a bug or even a problem here. If you need the return
 value as a string, you can get it. And if you want to print it out, that
 works too.

 We don’t even know if a change would break existing code. Let’s say
 someone is using the current behavior to reuse the return value:


 {{{
 $check = checked( $checked, $current, true );
 // create the next form field then:
 echo $check;
 }}}

 Not very likely, but possible. The current state works, we shouldn’t
 change it without a real benefit.
