Comment:

 So, I've been thinking this over some more. In the same way that making a
 general change to `wp_list_filter()` will break certain legitimate
 filters, my suggested fix will make it impossible to do certain legitimate
 filters on taxonomies. What if I want to find all the taxonomies that are
 exclusive to 'post'?

 More generally, the suggested change breaks the general pattern of
 functions that use `wp_list_filter()` internally, by treating one of the
 filters as a special case. I think that's a bad idea.

 As noted in [comment:4],`get_object_taxonomies()` is really meant for this
 very purpose, so it should be used instead.
