For stream_wrappers, by calling fopen() with a context parameter and
then fstat() on the opened stream, you should be able to pass a context
(the ->context attribute in the wrapper's instance).

Description:

Feature Request:

the stream wrapper functions are *totally awesome*  :-)  !!!

but the "stat" family of functions is limited by the lack of a "context"
param.

For instance I need to be able to provide a user name and password for a
particular connection.  for opendir mkdir fopen etc.  I am able to pass
a context with that info and everything works.  But then when I try to
do a "stat" or "fstat"  it fails because there is no way to pass the
$context.

Thank you for making PHP such a fantastic programming language!
