/**
- * Redirect the user to a URL after a form has been processed.
+ * Redirects the user to a URL after a form has been processed.
+ *
+ * After a form was executed, the data in $form_state controls whether the form
+ * is redirected. By default, we redirect to a new destination page. The path of
+ * the destination page can be set in $form_state['redirect']. If that is not
+ * set, the user is redirected to the current page to display a fresh,
+ * unpopulated copy of the form.
+ *
+ * There are several triggers that may prevent a redirection though:
+ * - If $form_state['redirect'] is FALSE, a form builder function or form
+ * validation/submit handler does not want a user to be redirected, which
+ * means that drupal_goto() is not invoked. For most forms, the redirection
+ * logic will be the same regardless of whether $form_state['redirect'] is
+ * undefined or FALSE. However, in case it was not defined and the current
+ * request contains a 'destination' query string, drupal_goto() will redirect
+ * to that given destination instead. Only setting $form_state['redirect'] to
+ * FALSE will prevent any redirection.
+ * - If $form_state['no_redirect'] is TRUE, then the callback that originally
+ * built the form explicitly disallows any redirection, regardless of the
+ * redirection value in $form_state['redirect']. For example, ajax_get_form()
+ * defines $form_state['no_redirect'] when building a form in an AJAX
+ * callback to prevent any redirection. $form_state['no_redirect'] should NOT
+ * be altered by form builder functions or form validation/submit handlers.
+ * - If $form_state['programmed'] is TRUE, the form submission was usually
+ * invoked via drupal_form_submit(), so any redirection would break the script
+ * that invoked drupal_form_submit().
+ * - If $form_state['rebuild'] is TRUE or $form_state['storage'] is populated,
+ * the form is most probably a multi-step form and needs to be rebuilt without
+ * redirection.
*
- * @param $form
- * An associative array containing the structure of the form.
- * @param $redirect
