Hi!

I think we should deprecate (and remove in 1-2 versions) quasi-aliases. E.g. 
functions which call another function with the same arguments and a few 
additional invariable arguments.

Like quotemeta (http://php.net/quotemeta). 

// Except for empty($str)
quotemeta($str) == addcslashes($str, ".\+*?[^]($)")

Also it's a bit odd that quotemeta returns false on an empty string what makes 
no sense.

Are there still uses for quotemeta which aren't negligible? (any reasons why we 
shouldn't deprecate it?)
