I see xml and unicode as critical technologies for PHP in it's role as a web based scripting language, as critical as html itself. If people cannot seperate that from the issue of embeding a bit more code in PHP distributions, and recognize that xml is as critical to the future of PHP as the web itself, well, there's no convincing.
