Incosistent behaviour is a problem, whether it is a serious problem or a
trivial one depends on a situation, however it does not change the fact it is
a problem. IMO when a function expects an array it should error out when the
argument it recieves is not array, with a possible exception of object's who
in ZE1 are nearly identical to arrays. Further more there is already an
fairly large number of functions of a similar function that operate in a
similar manner. It only makes sense to fix the one or two that do not.
