I'm just curious as to why it was decided to implement foreach as: foreach($array as $value) instead of foreach($array as $key)? It seems to me that the latter is the more logical, since $value is available as $array[$key], while there is no (AFAIK) easy way to obtain $key given $array and $value. I'm not complaining, just looking to understand.
