I was wondering the same thing.  In my case I have a BroadcastReceiver
implementation that calls
Context#unregisterReceiver(BroadcastReceiver) passing itself as the
arg after handling the Intent that it receives.  There is a small
chance that the receiver's onReceive(Context, Intent) method is called
more than once, since it is registered with multiple IntentFilters,
creating the potential for an IllegalArgumentException being thrown
from Context#unregisterReceiver(BroadcastReceiver).

In my case I can store a private synchronized member to check before
calling Context#unregisterReceiver(BroadcastReceiver), but it would be
much cleaner if the API provided a check method.
