I find the list construct to be quite magic already. Isn't it possible to get the affect that you want without adding anything to the core by doing this: $defaults = ['default', 'default']; $input = [1]; list($a, $b) = array_replace($defaults, $input); I'd find that way easier to understand and explain to junior devs, compared to having more functionality added to the 'list' magicness. cheers Dan -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
