No, that's exactly WRONG way to do things. We should first know if it's
good for PHP and only AFTER we know it's good, we should look for
technical bottlenecks. Doing it the wrong way is exactly what got us in
situation that everybody recognizes is messy. Because stuff that was
technically possible (and some things that only seemed possible if you
don't think too hard about them) was done without thinking how it would
behave in all the situations and how the rest of the language would work
with it.

What I do find a bit disturbing is that you think "I know some people
that want it" is a good argument to implement any language feature
despite quite clear problems that were explained to you - that you think
this argument alone is enough to dismiss all these problems as if they
didn't exist. You just wave it away and then you are surprised - where
this resistance is coming from?
