Lukas has a good point about the "0" votes, however if there are niche features most people don't really care/know about that in itself means that there is not much support for said functionality. IMHO the point of

There's a difference. Let't take two features which got similar voting record - -fvisibility and "strict classes". I think these things are redically different. First is the small build change that would not change anything in the language and will not influence anybody except PHP extensions builders, where it can provide small benefit. Second changes the language and adds a feature which is controversial - some think it adds much needed capabilities, while other think it goes contrary to the very spirit of the language. Clearly these are not equal. While the first can be implemented with little impact the second needs much more consideration and I think it can't be decided by simple voting. So while I think making list and voting is great, I think we shouldn't replace good old per-case consideration and discussion with arithmetics. If we have clear winners and losers, it's fine, but in between we still need to hear the case.
