E_STRICT doesn't cut it.  So many applications/servers out there run with 
E_STRICT off.  Then there is the multitudes that have _all_ error 
handling turned off.  It seems the weird conversions need to be handled 
differently.

One possibility is creating a new function called something like 
set_type_hint_failure_handler() where developers can name a userland 
function to deal with the conversion problems.

Another possibility is creating a new error level.

Thanks,

(Pardon me if this has been raised already.  I don't know when I will be 
able to read the rest of the thread, so need to put this out there before 
the E_STRICT idea goes to too far...)
