Hi Hannes,
In principle, I agree with everything. In practice, I've not been the maintainer of phar.phar, this is Marcus's baby, so I am not familiar with its innards. I have used it in the past month to debug some issues in some generated phars, however, so I do think it's useful. What would be nice, of course, is if it were part of ext/reflection as you say, but this is a post-5.3 issue. In terms of documentation, this is also true, and when I wrote the docs for ext/phar, it didn't even occur to me that this should be documented. As I said before, I have very limited time, is there anyone willing to document this thing? I think it would simply be a question of documenting the commands available. I may have time to do the tests, but that is also tenuous, so if there is a testfester who would like to tackle these, it would be greatly appreciated.
