Regarding include/require, I agree that any BC break would be extremely
minimal.  In the 10+ years I've been developing PHP, I don't think I've
ever once seen somebody include multiple scripts on a single line (I wasn't
even aware that such a thing was allowed).

See above.  It is not allowed now.

How about we just keep the parentheses optional and comma-seperate the
arguments?  For example, the require syntax could look like this:

require[(] $script_filename, $script_type = PHP_SCRIPT_TYPE_NORMAL [)];


include/require are language constructs. They do not require () around the parms, and making it optional probably isn't reasonable. OTOH, since it currently only allows one parm, adding a second, optional parm should be no problem.
