4. Rewrite the entire parser completely. I keep hearing about how bad PHP's
parser is, and how it's growing out of control. Perhaps this is a good time
to rewrite it (perhaps changing semantics slightly) to be better adapted

We have an RFC and a patch playing with lemon parser. Actually, just a
conversion, reentrant.
Refer to Pierrick or Felipe about it :-)
Will the conversion include writing a formal definition of the language
from the perspective of someone planning to write a PHP parser? Right
now the only way to get such a definition is to reverse-engineer the
Bison source.
