Hi,

First my apologies for not being able to go a real reply to the real thread,
but I just subscribed to the list a couple days ago (and the original thread
subject was way too long anyway ;-)).

IMHO there's a more simple way to fix that without changing all the functions
behavior. I think the distinction between NULL (non-existent data) and FALSE
(invalid) should be kept and that having both cases return NULL, thus forcing
users to use filter_has_var() to determine what this NULL means is a bit
counter-intuitive.

The problem is solved and a new flag has been commited, FILTER_NULL_ON_FAILURE.
