Of course, it's simplier to close a bug, than fix it.

You cannot do the following:
obj->method()->method2();
Mini example:
class Foo{
var $obj;
setObj( &$obj ) {
$this->obj =& $obj;
}
&getObj() {
return $this->obj;
}
hello() {
print "hi\n";
}
}
$a = new Foo;
$b = new Foo;
$b->setObj( $a );
$a->getObj()->hello();
// Doesn't work
In fact, this doesn't work either:
function foob() {
global $a;
return $a;
}
foo()->hello();
In addition, anything that hands objects back doesn't work
right. You can't chain certain things, like new commands.
All in all, the objects are rather inflexable.
