 The function description for `wp_parse_url()` states that the function is:

 `A wrapper for PHP's parse_url() function that handles edgecases in < PHP
 5.4.7`

 PHP's `parse_url()` function accepts an optional second parameter for
 specifying which URL part should be returned. This parameter is not
 supported in `wp_parse_url()`, therefore either `wp_parse_url()` should be
 modified so this parameter is accepted, or its documentation should be
 corrected.

 The former is preferable, the latter is easier.
