EK>>number on the ratio of abuse vs. use of this new feature.

So far, I personally saw one legitimate use brought up - exiting control 
blocks, which can be handled with another proposal, labeled breaks. 
Another use brought up - claim that parsers can't work without it - don't 
seem to me a valid argument for goto, I'm perfectly sure one can write 
parsers without any gotos, as many languages (e.g. Java) don't have gotos 
and have parsers for all kinds of data. That's not to mean PHP should 
always mimick Java, but this is to prove that agument about necessity of 
goto for parser writing is false. So, we are back to only one legitimate 
use. You are welcome to bring forward more.
