I know. I asked Nikita about this on IRC about a month or two ago. I think he said he just didn’t want to deliver an incomplete feature?
The RFC says that Nikita will not work on it if there is no demand. I am seeing many people do want it but personally this is another large bloat that I see little point to so should there not at least be some vote on whether it IS worth Nikita's time if the majority of users don't want it implemented? Having been through a major exercise bringing this under control using array parameters for variable data I don't want to have to start coping with yet another passing mechanism as third party libraries 'adopt new practices'!
Since this RFC also pulls in other RFC's should the whole roadmap on this be part of the developing plan for PHP6? Deciding what areas are actually worth people spending time on. Certainly if parameter names are to evolve to use UTF-8 strings, this should be part of the development plan?
