Personally, I prefer the exception. Logically, I can take 0 from something an infinite number of times... zero seems a far cry from this. To properly determine the intent of a division by zero, I think the programmer SHOULD have to handle it. Personally, I don't see 0 as acceptable. It suggests improper boundary checking.
     I'd like to see a patch against the core, or perhaps a PECL
module, that allows the use of explode() with empty parameters, which will then cause the physical machine on which the code is hosted to detonate itself. Unfortunately, it's unlikely we'll see that in the 5.3 branch.
