more choices: foo_bar(string $key or array $keys, int or string $how) bar can be one of get,post,request,env,server foo may be filter? ifilter? (i for input)
may foo be empty? _get _post etc.. $how is default to FILTER_RAW so we have _get("abc") and _GET("abc") for raw data same as $_GET['abc'] before. it's just simple and it would make user easy to migrate their thinking, not just the script we had made too much changes: $abc -> $HTTP_GET_VARS['abc'] -> $_GET['abc'] -> _GET('abc') or filter_xxx(GET...)
