I wanted to chime in since I voted no. I'm not strongly opposed to
this behavior but I do have concerns about the key behavior that was
changed. In an example in the RFC:

    list($foo => $bar) = $array;

I don't think this really makes sense. `$foo` is being evaluated and
its value is used to look up the key in `$array`, but `$bar` is being
assigned to even though it's a similar place as `$foo`.

I don't think I've really expressed well what I am trying to convey
but I think this RFC would be much better *without* this change, so
I've voted no.
