Using <?php=$var ?> seems ridiculous, because it would be implemented
only into current branches, so it would not bring compatibility with
older releases...
Moreover, instead of using <?=$var ?> for variable interpolation, I
prefer to use the heredoc syntax, I think it's better for good looking
and readable code.
For that, I don't see any reason to create any new short_open_tag like
config directive...

But why doesn't <?php=$foo ?> work? If that'd work, I just might start using

My prefrerence would be for the interpreter to look for "<?\w" when
short tags is enabled (that was brace, question mark, white space), I
don't think i've ever come across an instance when a space or line

there any good counter examples live?
Thousands. <?=$foo?> and <?echo $foo?> are both extremely common when
injection single PHP variables into forms and general HTML sections.
