Yasuo,

Me and Anatol, talked it over and we both believe that the old behavior should be restored as to how
it was in PHP5. It creates a less WTF factor when upgrading too, even though the new behavior is
makes more sense.

So please go ahead and commit a fix to revert the behavior back before Beta 2

So what should I do? Restore old behavior or not?

Hi,

I guess we should revert the change to PHP5 behavior. Please do a proof read of

https://wiki.php.net/rfc/session-lock-ini
http://grokbase.com/t/php/php-internals/142dbaan9h/vote-rfc-introduce-session-start-options-read-only-unsafe-lock-lazy-write-and-lazy-destroy

and also bug #65746. This behavior change is a subset of the mentioned RFC which had major concerns
and was declined. Until a proper solution is suggested and accepted, there is no reason to go for BC
breaks.

Thanks.

Autocorrection FTW.

Of course I meant application developer and s/codes/code/

It may seem more reasonable from an implementors point of view, because you're looking at the C
codes, but definitely does not seem reasonable for an appointment developer.

This breaks userland in an very unintuitive way.

I'd like mark this as won't fix.. the new behaviors seems more reasonable
