Hi everyone.
It's a known fact that nowadays most websites use at least UTF-8
encoding. Unfortunately PHP itself has stopped a bit in the previous
century. Is there any reason why the mbstring extension cannot be
introduced to core in the next major version (maybe preceded with a
deprecation message like it was with the mysql extension in v5)? All
functions from the standard library would become aliases for multibyte
equivalents.
