Okay, well PHP 6's behavior is going to change certain things already. Hence why I would recommend the change to be in a major version (6.x) But in the meantime, we're going to be stuck using a construct that works but does not work to actual specification and we're just going to "stick with it" because it will be a change? PHP does "magic" already on a variety of things behind the scenes, there should be no reason why this is any different. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
