Detracting from my goal of having 'filled()' included in core, I'd
have to say that as I see input filtering defined, that could be

in 'zend' core because it simply can not be written as an extension
or in userspace without triggering errors (undefined variables) or
creating unwanted variables (pass by reference).
I think it is time for you to do two things. The first is to read this
list archive about ifsetor (and other names it has), it will spare you
some ink and us some bandwidth. The second is to actually try the
filter extension and get some knowledge about what can be done where
and why. There is eventually a third one, try to imagine than the Z
Framework has nothing to do with php.net.
It is not an attack, but it seems you are putting so much effort on
this topic without actually having read what has been said and
decided.
Well, from where I'm setting, Dante has brought up excellent points
that were never covered before according to my look at the list
archives. In fact, I find this situation indicative of a larger
problem, which is that extremely important discussions of major
issues with the language get breezed by far too quickly just because
someone decides it's not interesting enough or it's time to move on
(*cough* named parameters *cough*). I think the concept behind filled
() is sound, has merit, and is worth talking about seriously.
