SplObjectStorage now implements a getHash($obj) method, so you can
extend 

SplObjectStorage and overwrite that method to suit your needs.

Description:
------------
SplObjectStorage will be a lot more useful if I could override the hash
function 

it uses, so different objects which are really equal will be recognized
as such by 

SplObjectStorage.



While I currently do this by jumping through a few hoops, this will be a
welcome 

addition. A __hashCode() magic method can accomplish this easily.

Test script:
---------------
Pseudo-code:

<?

class StockSecurity {

        public $exchange;

        public $ticker;

        

        public function __hashCode() {

                return $this->exchange . ":" . $this->ticker;

        }

}



$d = new SplObjectStorage();

$s = new StockSecurity( 'NASDAQ', 'GOOG' );

$d->attach( $s, getStockQuote( $s ) );



// later on, in a different method

$s = new StockSecurity( 'NASDAQ', 'GOOG' );

$quote = $d[ $s ];
