This seems fine, though I wonder if we should introduce a phutil_empty_string() or phutil_is_empty_string function to avoid the double-negative logic. I think this reads more easily:

if (phutil_empty_string($from)) {
  throw new Exception()
}

than this:

if (!phutil_nonempty_string($from)) {
  throw new Exception()
}

In the future it may be nice to also have a getArgStr() that always return a string, never NULL. So, we can just if ( $to === '' )
