The only real use that I can see would be that it allows:
public function getCallback() {
return function() use ($this as $that) {
$that->doSomething();
}
}
However, I think that would be confusing, since $that would only have
public access...
I'm not against the idea, I just don't see a strong use-case for it.
It's not like your injecting the scoped vars into an existing
function, you're writing the function fresh. So why not just use the
existing var names?
