Call me ignorant but is this required in typical web applications?

PHP is used for various things, not just web apps. I use it for various other things because its the language in which I am most fluent.

And the requirements of *typical* apps using PHP should not be the basis for removing functions that are in fact used in existing programs.

It's possible to change programs so they don't use mt_rand() etc. but most people won't thank you for forcing them to rewrite software that works.

Leigh, iiuc, is trying to fix bugs. Let's not change the discussion to cleaning up PHP's API.
