Gotta agree, don't promote crap please. :)

Yup, definately. One thing about these manual pages, example shows it
the best: http://docs.php.net/manual/en/zlib.setup.php
Is it really necessary to split this to 3 different pages..? 
(Installation, Runtime Configuration, Resources types) 

And btw. That "Runtime" there is VERY misleading. Not every ini option
is modifiable during runtime. Just make it "Configuration options" or
something as vague as that. :)

Even more pages? Everything right now, yes please. That's not a crazy
idea at all, IMO.
