I appreciate this is mostly just a stub to revisit later, but for the record I think this should have its own RFC. There's a risk of these bulk RFCs becoming a way to bypass our normal process, since each section has much less detail than would be required for a standalone RFC.
Even for the bulk deprecation RFC I try to include as much justification and explanation as possible for the sections I add. This generally includes workarounds or possible polyfills. One such example would be my proposal to deprecate `uniqid()` in 8.4:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_4#deprecate_uniqid
In this case, you will be revisiting a topic where a previous RFC was rejected, so it's important that there's a clear rationale of why either this is a different proposal, or the previous arguments no longer apply.
That's fair, I'll do this as a standalone RFC. Although I don't think there is much insightful discussion to be had here. Either folks are in favor or they are not, but discussion is unlikely to change anyone's opinion.
