Bug description: Access array member without variable
Description:
------------
When you get a reference to an array, by a function, there is no way to
access any certain member of the array.
With this function given:
<?php
function get_array()
{
return array("foo" => "FOO", "bar" => "BAR");
}
?>
there is no way to do:
<?php print get_array()["foo"] ?>
You have to do like this:
<?php
$array = get_array();
print $array["foo"];
?>
There should be a way to access a member of the array in only one
expression, without the need for assigning a variable.
Either by using the first syntax above, or if you don't like the looks of
it, maybe a function like this:
<?php print array_value(get_array(), "foo") ?>
