Isn't something similar already done? I was thinking that making short_open_tag runtime-only would be the best solution (applying it only to include/require files, not on the same script enabling the option), but given the amount of necessary code and behaviour changes it is unsuitable for 5.3 (and somebody needs to be willing to do that). I'm not aware of something similar being proposed before, so, what do you think? I'm still looking for a way to warn about the use of open_short_tag not being explicitly enabled on the PERDIR level. Otherwise the only thing I see would make applications change would be when the default is Off and they break.
