Thanks to Ilia for getting to ball rolling on scalar type hinting.
I believe I have a solution that caters to each crowd, without being
too complicated.
My impression is that there only minor support for the "flexible"
approach, and that even then, everyone prefers strict checking by
default. So the ideal seems to be your patch, with the addition of
function x ((int) $casted_parameter) { ... }
hmm not sure that the consensus of a "weak" check would be an
automatic cast. Actually that wouldnt be much of a check in that case.
I think the other side is more asking for what Ilia already begun with
"numeric" in the sense of a weak checker. After the check it could go
ahead and cast too for all I care, but it shouldnt be the equivalent
of a cast. But maybe you are not implying that and I am just getting
confused by the syntax.
