If you're still worried about this making it in, don't worry. Nikita and I

Then please close the voting.
Since there is no "maximum voting period" and 5.5 is not in a feature
freeze yet, I left the voting open, in case some people decided to read
the patch and change their minds. I see no reason to close the vote
unless I'm required to do so or the game is up.
I share Pierre's sentiment that this vote is pretty ridiculous. People
have been asking for this feature (present in every other modern
language) for 5+ years. I spent two years going through the *tedious*
RFC discussion process, wrote the software, Nikita made it even better
to have it shot down without even reasonable explanations as to why
"from most people."
Some people gave good explanations (Sherif Ramadan) even if I don't
agree with them. Very few others did and it really leaves us/me with no
direction to go. No reason for the rejection ergo no way to "improve
this, or improve that."
Some are resting on the idea that the ROI isn't there just aren't
listening to the community.
I'd love nothing more than to have this proposal accepted, and perhaps I
will give it another go in the future. I figured at the very least I
should contribute in other ways to PHP so that I eliminate the "big RFC
from a new developer" aspect of the situation, which I think ultimately
was the deciding factor.
