I think if you want to push the RFC forward, a really quite strong
case needs to be made for why having it be a language level feature is
so much better (or even at all better) than having it be implemented
in userland.
For example, as it is available in other languages, giving an example
of some code that is much better than the equivalent would be in PHP
could be a good way of showing it is desirable.
