I do, though code completion, type hinting, etc. would be nice. It would nice if it was consistenly added so that built-in functions had that behavior, since no one can use the array hack for those. But lots of things would be nice, so I don't really care. Seems like too much work for the benefit. And there are downsides not even mentioned in this thread (parameter names are now seen (which is obvious, until you really think about it), they gain longevity, language issues, etc.). Not to mention, we might be tempted to go back and rewrite stuff and that would not be an effecient use of our time. But "rare occurrences"? That was pretty funny!
