R. David Murray added the comment:
Don't break backward compatibility. It's not like this was reported as a bug
that caused a problem for real world code, it is about theoretical consistency.
The risk of breaking someone code is much higher than the benefit of any such
consistency, when talking about a bug fix.
Aside from that, however, I see request.('GET', '/') and request.('GET', '/',
'') as clearly *different* from an API call standpoint, so I would in any case
preserve the existing behavior.
