Comment (by johnbillion):

 This really isn't a bug that anybody should be experiencing often, let
 alone over a period of years. If you are, then the third party code in
 question needs to be fixed because this is not a bug in WordPress but a
 bug in the code that's performing a capability check without all the
 required parameters.

 I agree that triggering a `_doing_it_wrong()` in this situation will make
 it clearer to the developer what the problem is, but the third party code
 that triggers the problem still needs to be fixed.
