Description

The builtin category and post_tag taxonomies have the query_var argument set to false.

This has undesired side effects, especially for plugins.

The reason the query vars are set to false is due WP_Query handling the query vars manually for those taxonomies.

Adding the query vars has some side effects i believe.

What are the problems plugins are running into?

Replying to dd32:

I guess this calls for a more holistic approach. Will probably be addressed in #9951

What are the problems plugins are running into?

I'm enhancing my ​Query Multiple Taxonomies to allow term intersections and I need to treat tags and categories like a regular taxonomy.

I guess it's not such a common problem. :)
