Oh, and I almost forgot one wishlist item I've had on my list for a long time (I hope you guys have an open mind)........
How about doubling integer precision to 64 bits and float/double precision to 128 bits? It's in line with 64 bit CPU capabilities, and personally, I wouldn't mind it a bit if it would make numerical processing in PHP slower on 32 bit systems. I think the advantages are much too great for that. If this is ever gonna happen, I think PHP6 would be great timing for it. It would make falling back to the slow string-based bc match functions a lot less common. Personally, I really like the idea of being able to count to 9223372036854775808 instead of 2147483648.
