--- Comment #1 from Antoine "hashar" Musso <[email protected]> ---
Doug McIlroy, then head of the Bell Labs CSRC and contributor to Unix pipes,[1]
summarised Unix philosophy as follows:[2]

This is the Unix philosophy: Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
Write programs to work together. Write programs to handle text streams, because
that is a universal interface.

Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy


Adding a new feature to parse.php would be against that philosophy. I am afraid
people will end up making it to accept moaar parameters and eventually rename
it server.php :/
