i agree. i currently see 5 fundamental different options on the table:

1) current trunk
2) current trunk but only with scalar/numeric type support
3) weak typing with current PHP conversion rules that raise an E_STRICT on data 
loss
4) weak typing with new conversion rules
5) some syntax to allow both one of 1)/2) and 3)/4)/5)

i can take care of 3), 4) and 5) over the weekend, though for 4b) (see below) i 
would like to get some feedback from others

other than that i agree that we have beat this horse long enough that we can 
then pretty quickly move to a vote. that being said, i think we should do the 
vote by allowing people to then sort the RFC's in order of preference with the 
option of leaving options out that they want to veto.

of course if 6) gets voted for we would then have to decide on which of the 
permutations (1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 2/3, 2/4, 2/5) to go with in a second vote.

PS: of course for 4) i see some suboptions
a) raise an E_STRICT on data loss
b) raise an E_STRICT on data loss and adjust PHP's type juggeling to these rules
c) raise an E_FATAL on data loss
