What's really wrong with it? signal_autoconnect('gladefile_callback' => array('my_callback', $my_data)); This will allow you to re-map a callback in .glade file to a PHP callback. If there are other callbacks specified in the .glade file, then they will be connected automatically to the functions of the same name. I don't see what's so horrible about this.

What's really wrong with it is that it encourages name changing. That parameter should only be used if there's a reason for it, i.e. if you want to have array($this, 'gladefile_callback'); in there. The rest of the time, why type extra stuff?

Sure. Most of the time you won't even need that parameter, and hell, if you just want to add some user data to a callback, maybe the first entry in the array is 'null' instead of callback name, so the callback gets hooked up to the function of the same name. - Andrei
