Well, it looks like there are at least 3 feature requests for this; but this one is the most popular
and has had a patch linked against it since a comment posted in Sept 2008.

I've looked at the patch, it seems complete enough; the amount of code added is pretty tiny,
and has test cases to test the functions too.

So I guess the question is how to get the developers to pick this up and put the code into the main
development line. Do devs even pay attention to user requests?

(It may be a tiny feature but it would make a whole bunch of code much easier to maintain).

Please import this feature into mainline PHP. We are still looking for this patch.

Please use the patch by thekid for the next release.  We really need this.

This would be a really useful feature that I have been wishing for, for at least 
two years.
How come this has not been implemented when it is such a simple feature that has 
also been requested since 2008?

I have an idea to use this for a static registry class, would be really useful for keeping
'application-wide' data out of global variables.

I have no idea how to apply this patch, is it possible to use the above mentioned .diff on PHP 5.3.1
?

I would really apreciate this feature too
