The Streamable interface sounds like a great idea. Now is this bug ever going to get prioritized?

Even thought making the SplFileObject::getFilePointer() method public would be a great addition I
think there is a better solution which would be to create a abstract interface "Ã la"
Traversable but called "Streamable".
This interface would not be implemented alone but classes that implement it like SplFileObject would
be usable directly on function like stream_append_filter, streamp_get_metadata of even curl_setopt.
That way the SplFileObject file pointer would be "usable" but its file pointer property
would remain protected from a developer who would otherwise use the SplFileObject::getFilePointer()
result direclty on a fclose function.

Any updates on this? It would be really useful to change the visibility of this method to public.

I agree that this method should also be public. Please implement this method ASAP.

I don't see why this method shouldn't be public. I vote for extending its
visibility to public.
