I guess we want implicit_flush=On in cli to enable control/test scripts
on the command line. Suppose the default ini file enables output buffering.
What would become out of run_tests.php? It would only output after all
tests have finished. But of cause we want to see every single test result
directly.

Another example is XML handling with php from commandline in the way
Sebastian does. He relies on internal functions using buffering for capturing.

At last someone could want to use php to transform any texts simply by
using mbstring or iconv. Then every little output pece must be routed through
those output handlers.

But this should not be affected by implicit flush setting.
