I agreed to the conclusion that the "function" keyword provided a nice

Please provide new arguments for a new discussion. (That thread was
rather long)
And as a general note I'd like to remind you all about Rasmus' recent
mail: http://news.php.net/php.internals/65894 - In my words: Why not fix
bugs instead of creating new ones?

Hmm, I agree about grepping, but how often do you do it? Actually, last
time I grepped php files was half a year ago I think, when I had just ssh
connection and didn't want to mount sshfs. But usually there's IDEs that
can statically analyze your code and let you search against huge codebases
in seconds, I don't want to sound mean, but hey, does anybody greps php
code?
What about reasoning - of course there's no reasons besides less typing.
At the moment, usually when I want to define method, I usually already
know will be in its body so I'm trying to type as fast as I can, and I
often make some mistake in `public` keyword or `function`, actually it
happens all the time :) So for me it would be pretty good feature if I
could write one less word.
I agree with Sara about requirement for explicit declaration of visibility
attr.
