I'd like to open a discussion on the RFC to allow trailing commas in
function arguments.

Discuss! :)
Hmm. I'm not sure if this is a good idea. For arrays, trailing commas
make perfect sense: arrays are very often written over multiple lines,
where trailing commas look pretty, and it's likely new elements will be
added or old elements removed, justifying the trailing comma for cleaner
diffs and less pain when editing the source.
But for functions? Most function calls are just a single line. Most
function declarations, too. And even when they are multi-line, you're
not going to be adding a new argument or parameter, respectively, very
often. Since these additions aren't very common, you'd need to use
trailing commas everywhere (yuck) to get any benefit, because you
probably can't predict which instances you're going to change soon.
To me this looks like something that adds another big stylistic
difference to disagree on, and adds potential ugliness (`foo($bar,);`)
for very limited gain.
So, my intial reaction would be a -1, sorry.
Thanks.
