I got that, and I like simplification. It would just not really make
php.ini files "portable" between Windows and Unix.

I could even think of some other feature(let)s that might help us move
into that direction:

- define a unified path separator for include_path (the system-dependend
ones could still be accepted, thus keeping BC)
- accept paths in php.ini with forward slashes on all systems (I think
Apache also does -even requires- it that way)
- for system-dependent settings like SMTP, have SMTP.Windows and
SMTP.Unix settings that can "override" the general SMTP setting (this
idea certainly needs some more thought)
- also make zend_extension and zend_extension_ts "guess" wether dll or
so is to be loaded

Kind regards,

Stefan
