Its a noble goal, but lets be realistic. Having and extension in the core package is always going to be easier than installing it as an external package. There is also how wide spread usage of something we want to get. I think that Phar is going to be useful only if its universally available in the PHP installs, and I think that would a good thing for PHP.
