Hi Jorg, thank you for the RFC, and for taking the time to identify a whole list of things that should be looked at for normalising. It looks like a useful reference.
> Array keys “key” != “Key” This is objectively terrible behaviour. But changing it would break so much code, in such subtle ways that I don't think it would be acceptable for the current distribution to change. The current distribution is also somewhat terrible. Not even through bad design, just through choices made in an era where software was still often shipped on disk, and compiling PHP took overnight. So you get things happen such, as setting the "C" locale to France results with invalid SVG files being generated. I think it's probably worth discussing a new distribution, which would be an opportunity for cleanups like this. I also think that PHP is not a good "my first programming language". I find it hard to imagine newbies pushing through the difficult bit of getting started, to build something cool to show their friends. cheers Dan Ack
