Comment (by Rarst):

 Actually, no, while `date_i18n()` does behave like this, `date()` does
 not. It would return `false` on invalid timestamp input.

 I am not sure what is preferable here:

 1. Have `date_i18n()` and `wp_date()` both return current time for invalid
 input.
 2. Have `date_i18n()` return current time, but `wp_date()` return `false`
 for invalid input.
