In my opinion it is a good thing that PHP is powerful enough to enable

Agreed, but I was not clear. I refer to core features like what we can
find in hhvm, hack, more recently the JVM compiler or similar
projects. Many features which have nothing to do with the engine they
use should have been available in the core since long.
If anybody (being a contributor to a clone or some "user") sees anything
in any implementation that they want to be part of PHP they can under
the RFC process.
If anybody thinks there is need for a specification they can start
writing it and look for help and review.
Statements that something "should" be done by "somebody" won't work in a
volunteer project.
This is exactly my approach. I am starting a thread to discuss about it, and I don't ask “somebody” to do this, I am just exchanging an idea. I could be a volunteer to start such a project (in few months), but at first, I have created this subject to gather opinions.
With that this discussion is finished for me. If anybody wants to
reiterate this we can do this off list, not taking time from others with
a meta discussion giving no results.
Why such a reaction? Did you take my idea as offensive? Why declaring this subject as “meta discussion giving not results”? We are just speaking about it for 1 hour ago…
Best regards.
