It is insane for the exact reason explained by Jani. We try our best
to remove such things to finally from PHP to finally have clean codes
without dozen tests if this feature or setting is enabled or not. This
feature makes absolutely no sense and I don't see any benefits but
more pains.
How can you seriously argue that this setting (which was always set
once per request) makes sense when it can suddenly change between the
first line of a script and the first included files? It can't make
sense.
<history>the register global and the magic quotes were both wonderfull
features</history>
