Think of a factory function that creates an object of various classes
by calling that object's constructor with the same arguments. If a
constructor needs a reference (perhaps to another object), this is not
possible if you want to write clean code without tricks like hard-code
arguments with default values.

The function func_get_arg() and func_get_args() should support being
called to return references:
function do_something()
{
$args = func_get_args();
for ($i=0; $i<count($args); $i++) {
do_something_with($args[$i]);
}
}
$ref = new Object();
do_something(&$ref, "String", 0, 1.5);
This function could register a dynamic number of variables to the
session (references for the Object!!!), create an array or simple call
another function with exactly the same arguments.
I think it should be no problem for func_get_arg[s]() to save
references passed to the function. Like
function x($arg1, $arg2)
{
$args = array(&$arg1, &$arg2);
}
saves $arg1 and $args by reference if they are passed by reference or
by value if they are passed by value.
Thank you, looking forward to the new object model in Zend 2!!!
