The minutes of the Paris meeting committed to implementing this for PHP 6, and it's a much-needed feature (IMHO, of course!). If you're
Much needed for what? What can be done with it that can't be easily done with other means?
going to start arguing against what looks very much like a firm decision of an eminent group of PHP core developers, you need *much* better reasons than "I don't like it" or "too like language x".
Here's much better reason: PHP is not the kitchen sink of features and syntaxes. Not every cool idea belongs to core PHP. I am saying that this particular feature definitely doesn't, but it needs to be proven that it does. My opinion is that the same function is easily implemented by existing means so adding this syntax is redundant.
