Hi all, I have considered maps ... since it is possible to do in userland, I don't consider it super urgent, and even if you do, it doesn't become urgent until PHP 7.4 is much closer to release. So, we have almost a year; If this flies in, it's *highly* likely I'll follow it up ... but don't

Hi all, Just a friendly reminder that when we're committing changes to files that do not contain source, test code, or build configuration, it's helpful to include [ci skip] in the commit message. Omitting it can put our CI quite far behind. Cheers Joe

Evening all, I've prepared an alternative: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/4282 Hiding the arguments seems sensible enough, not as a hardcoded default (default behaviour should be retained), but as a documented recommended default for production. I think, this needs to go through the RFC
