Well, couple of reasons:
1) Once you completely hide an error there is absolutely no trace what
so ever that it has even occurred, even if its the slowdown of the
native error handler being.
2) Debugging code becomes that much more trickier, since a single
option effectively turns off PHP's error handling completely.
As far as I can tell the only benefit of this patch is to allow error
prone code to run faster by avoiding the slow down of generating error
message strings when errors occurs, but the downside is abuse by
people who just want errors to go away... IMHO the downside outweighs
the upside.

Hi!
While the patch is certainly interesting, I think masking errors is
a really really bad idea.
Any argument as to why?
