Comment:

 Thanks for the report @ignatiusjeroe !

 Replying to [ticket:48035 ignatiusjeroe]:
 > if the users enters a string it triggers an php warning error.

 I think this is expected behaviour. This function expects this parameter
 to be an array and anything else is unexpected.

 PHP warnings exist for a reason, to inform the user that their code isn't
 behaving as expected. Warnings shouldn't be avoided just because they can.
 I think a warning here is appropriate.
