Hi!
I see three key options going forward:
1. Implement the table along the lines of what it looks like now,
perhaps with minor changes.
2. Implement identical conversion rules to the ones that exist in
PHP; That effectively turns type hinting into scalar casting
operators (not saying that's a bad thing!)
3. Implement identical conversion rules to the ones that exist in
PHP, except for when they really suck. Namely, lose the
array->scalar conversions and silent conversions of non-numeric
strings to numbers.
I'm for 3, Array->scalar must die, as for non-numeric to numbers, I
don't have strong opinion as I see no point in it, IMO if it failed, I'd
be OK with it.
In case we remove 'Array->scalar' and others everywhere, #3 would be the
same as #2. I'm for that.
Thanks. Dmitry.
