I vote NO, because the implementation introduces more problems than intents to 
fix.

For example the following code starts to throw exception:


<?php $a = [null]; $c = null; var_dump($a[0][0] + $c[0]); ?>


BTW, I'm not against the feature, I'm against the implementation.

It's just can't be committed in current state.


Thanks. Dmitry.

For the record, the RFC rightly claims:

| The default behavior, of a silent NULL return, is not correctly
| defined in the Array Documentation however is noted in a comment

I have documented this behavior now[3], and removed the note, which was
not quite correct, because it claimed that TRUE would be returned when
array dereferencing NULL, bool or int.
