Comment (by brianhogg):

 @joshlevinson the decision on `_single_arg` was that a) people would
 likely either want just the value or the three params and b) its not
 really clear what passing "2" would do or passing
 `sanitize/validate_callback_args` with a value greater than 3
 (error/warning?  no effect?)

 If there's a case we missed where one would just want 2 args passed
 without using an anonymous function for the callback (ie. value and the
 request object, but without the key) could go with the args count
 approach?
