For instance with readline this contains two things. For one the readline() and related userspace functions, which I assume are not used thaaaat often, but also the interactive shell mode (php -a with CLI+readline enabled) and I think the later is quie important to many users and should see similar common responsibility as those key SAPIs, main/ and so on. (I once moved that functionality from SAPI/cli to ext/readline to satisfy distributors who didn't want to statically link readline for license and related reasons) johannes
