There are discussions about that on the PDO list in the past. However,
it is because we failed to start discussions that we should give up
and continue to add bad designed features to PDO, with all respects to
the author of the patch.
Now let begin an open discussion to define what we actually need for
PHP to continue to rock the web
Well, I collected various points at
http://wiki.php.net/internals/pdo/brainstorming (a wiki page started by
Lukas)
The big problem I see, there is no one to take responsible for PDO. In
my opinion stuff that should work since ages should be fixed and then
new features can be added in a sane and most backward compatible way. So
the solution I use currently is to wrap PDO and try to fix the most
annoying binding bugs in userland, but for higher level stuff that won't
work.
Imho, using a connection pointer for going back to the native libs is
the wrong approach, so adding somehow the missing feature is the only
right way for PDO.
I think the discussion was already started, but as usually the pdo list
doesn't have enough people to get things done and will be silent for the
next "decade" as soon as the first ideas show up. I don't see a benefit
in collecting the ideas at the wiki either as no one really cares anyway...
