Nothing is stopping you from submitting a patch that implements this.
People generally add the features they need. Apparently nobody capable
of writing this feature has ever needed it. (That might tell you
something)

I think it's a shame that two years after this feature was requested it
has not been implemented...
Lots of people are missing this feature and therefore it would be a
great addition to PHP... If anyone knows how to make a patch for this,
please do so... I am sure it would be appreciated by many.

Russians call the '@', little dog, 'sabachkee'. Anyway, I like the idea
of stri_replace because the only alternative is a slower, and more
complex usage of [eregi|pregi]_replace. And if one is replacing a lot
of symbols, (like I am), and not just strings, then extensive knowledge
of regex is required , (which I don't have yet), to replace all the
symbols. I'm trying to escape all the key words and key symbols in
Oracle's applications. Works great with str_replace, **IF** I want to
change the whole string to upper or lower case, or use a function of my
own. Otherwise, it sucks. I am implementing one of my own for now
though, (actually copying the non recursive one under 'str_replace()'.
To see an example of it, see: http://www.qweeka.com/db_tools.php after
memorial day.

I marked similar feature requests as duplicates (bugs #10352 and
#14215) and am changing the status of this to open. This feature
request comes up fairly often, it's still open :)
