+1.
Sorry, I should have read better. My +1 was for the feature in
general,
not for 5.3. I think we should concentrate most of the new feature
development on 6.0, now that 5.3 is out to avoid having yet another
"feature-filled" 5.x release.
So, once again, completely against this going into 5.3.
+1 for what Andrei said ( to further muddy the waters ). Ilia, why
5.3 or die? This feature should be in HEAD IMO.
PHP 6 is too far off in a practical sense (sorry Andrei) from the time
where I can see myself using it in production or other people
benefiting from this function. The (simpler) variant of provided patch
is what is currently being used on production, if it can go into 5.3,
which I see myself using soon, then there is a tangible benefit from
making this a public feature (reduce the amount of custom patching)
and spending the time to refine it for public consumption and making
it PHP 6 ready. If it can only be added in PHP6, then the amount of
interest I personally have towards further evolution of this feature
is very minimal.
So for me personally, the practically of the feature's deployment is
critical.
