And at this point I have still restricted my view to the issue of token name, whereas there is an obvious way to do better at relatively low cost, namely replacing the token name with a user-friendly description of the token. I really appreciate the efforts made to make PHP better; thanks for that. But I friendly suggest that, each time you are going to propose an improvement, you take first a step back and consider how your change fits in its wider context. —Claude
