 New Comment:

This is not something we will add, as it's going to be impossible to decide a format. If you
want __toString to work, create an inherited class that implements __toString with you format of
choice.

This would be nice to implement at least into 5.3 version.

Description:
------------
it would be nice if a static function DateTime::setDefaultFormat() was added to the DateTime class,
which can set a default output format which can be used by DateTime's __toString() - which is
also currently non-existing.
