Comment (by GunGeekATX):

 Thought about it some more and it may not be necessary to check for a
 registered page in add_settings_section().  The menu slug has no
 correspondence to the do_settings_sections() call.

 However, add_settings_field() should do this check for a either a
 registered settings section or one of the built-in pages and sections
 (such as {{{do_settings_fields('media', 'uploads')}}}).  I'll work on a
 patch for this.
