I'm not sure about the version change cycle (5.4 vs 5.5 vs 6.0), but regarding this part of the RFC: "'removal' What do people think should happen here? Please discuss." That's a key point as it's not a simple matter, especially considering several functions and settings exist. I reckon we all now agree that get_magic_quotes_*() should remain but return false. But for example, what about people who use set_magic_quotes_runtime() and set it to false? Should we punish these people for the sake of a cleaner break from our beloved magic quotes? Maybe. I think the current patch would simply remove it. Where is the current patch, and what does it do?
