Beyond that I can't picture what possible use this could be.
I also think that the ability to have a .phpc and .php side by side would be nice, but not for hiding the source code. It would be useful especially for php-cgi and secondary for php-cli. In php-cgi case theres people who still host multiple sites on a single server and use the php-cgi method because it doesn't requires to have an always running instance like with php-fpm.
Lets say you are hosting 100 sites on a single server, imho it would be less resourceful to run php-cgi processes on demand than having more than 100 fpm processes idling for requests. So in this scenario, having the flexibility to load byte code for php-cgi process would be a nice performance boost.
