Hi!

My opinion: if it ain't broke, don't fix it. It's ok to use new syntax
in new code, but spending time on changing perfectly working code just
to use new array syntax looks like misplaced effort to me.

There are new features that I would have more support immediate change,
like $this in closures - that makes code much more readable and less
bug-prone. Even then, I'm ambivalent whether we need to touch the code
that much, but I see a point of cleaning it up. But with array syntax,
it's just a different syntax, and I don't see a lot of reason to mess
with existing working code just to use it.
