Perhaps it's a good idea to redirect search bots to index.php. This should be done very carefully, as it can have a bad impact on SEO. If a page as a different behavior for a bot than for a regular user, then it is flagged as suspicious by the bot. If you meant "addon.php should redirect to index.php when there's no module", then ok, but for all users, not only bots (even if only bots should send such request).
Yes, you are right, I mean "addon.php should redirect to index.php when there's no query string".
Same to css.php.
Fixed in master and branch_5_2
It is part of the nature of search bots to visit each know webpage (also) without any query string even if all original links have a query string.
addon.php triggers each time an error if "module" is missing.
I think it shouldn't be treated as an error if the script is called without a query string. Only an incomplete query string should trigger an error message.
