Comment (by kitchin):

 Ack, 33837.stringish.diff is the best I have for behavior. I looked at
 making it more like WP_List_Table::current_action() in how it works, but
 the goal is to replace $_REQUEST generally, so this still seems best to
 me, whatever the name:
 {{{
 function wp_raw_request_value( $field, $value = null ) {
         if ( is_string( $field ) && isset( $_REQUEST[ $field ] ) ) {
                 $raw = $_REQUEST[ $field ];
                 if ( is_string( $raw ) ) {
                         if ( $value !== null ) {
                                 return $value === $raw;
                         }
                         return $raw;
                 }
         }
 }
 }}}
