Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 Replying to [comment:2 ocean90]:
 > Let's not change `$args` to `$r`, that's not really relevant for this
 change.

 It will be relevant when there's a variable collision, and it's already a
 commonly used approach in core.

 This is still a bug, because form elements cannot have empty names.

 Leaving `wp_dropdown_languages()` as is increases the opportunity for it
 to introduce more problems, as this ticket discovered already.

 Why not just fix this now and move onto bigger things? This should be
 committed as patched, not moved into the Future Release abyss.
