Probably will get round to fixing this, but logging it as I can't atm Supplying blfilterredir= barfs, should just take that as all (ie default)
Or should it? :/
This is a deeper problem with the param validation code in ApiBase: what should happen to an invalid value? Maybe there should be a boolean flag in the getAllowedParams() array that specifies whether it's OK to fall back to the default in this case (if not, we'll go back to the old behavior and throw an error). OTOH, it's a bot API, our clients are responsible for and perfectly capable of supplying valid requests.
I don't think this is worth throwing in a fallback option for the parameter. Roan is right, bot programmers should be smart enough to pass the right value to the API.
