Changes (by ericlewis):

 * milestone:  4.5 => Future Release


Comment:

 Let's move this off the 4.5 milestone.

 We should think on a few things here:

 * `find_match()` as it currently stands is more or less a static function.
 Should we make the function a proper class method and look at registered
 rewrite rules (`$wp_rewrite->wp_rewrite_rules()`)?
 * The fact that the function requires `$request` and `$request_uri` is
 confusing. I wonder if we can boil the function input down to `$request`.
