Bug description: $str{begin,length} Substring operator?
Description:
------------
Odd, I thought this was actually in PHP5 already, but could find no
mention of it in the documentation. It's not in the PHP4 I have here
anyway.
The feature would work as in the title: $str{begin,length} would work as
substr($str,begin,length). Just a notational convenience, but struck me
as a natural (and useful) extension of the $str{n} operator.
Nonessential :)
