Hello internals, I have decided to withdraw this RFC. The primary way for this to have been usable would have been to use the engine level "@prefer-ref" parameter "attribute". However, this is rarely used and adds some minor complexity to the engine that mainly exists to support less than ideal API/functions or other limitations currently with PHP. And it is probably wise not to introduce more usages of said attribute. The alternative, that I would support but don't intend to do, is to add a new set of `sorted()` functions.
