I'd like to start a discussion of a proposal to allow closures to be

Thanks to Joe and Bob for the assistance in the patch.
I've wanted something like this for a long time. All that being said,
though, I'm not sure a function is the way to do it. In C I can just use
the name of a function to get a function pointer, couldn't we do this in
PHP somehow? That is, `array_map(strlen, ["foo", "foobar",
"elePHPant"]);` rather than `array_map(closure('strlen'), ...)`.
I realise this would be a bit difficult to do, but I think it's a nicer
approach.
Thanks.
