If we are going to go about removing stupid operators in PHP, the current

Or people don't like how PHP currently handles errors/warnings/notices
and would prefer to handle the messages themselves in the same context
of the running code (i.e. not in a global handler). I'd rather see the
@ operator become a "most recent" message collector instead of purely an
error suppressor. That way, the current behavior wouldn't change for
existing applications but users could start taking advantage of whatever
associated functionality is added.
There are also significant security issues that arise when NOT using the
@ operator.
