Following the recent successful vote of the RFC adding the support for
endianness modifiers on integers, I'd like to present the natural
continuation of it. It will complete the support of endianness
modifiers across relevant format letters of pack()/unpack().
Here is the RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/pack-unpack-float-endianness-modifier
Thank you for the RFC. This sounds like a straight-forward follow-up for
the previous RFC.
The only comment I have would be that it would make sense to list
deprecating g, G, e, and E as a Future Scope option to further align the
behavior with Perl, which doesn't support g, G, e, E. It is not
necessary or expected that everything from Future Scope is done, it is
just a list of things that would be possible as a follow-up, deferring
figuring out the details to a later point.
