Re: [RFC] Global functions any() and all() on iterables

I'd expect items(): iterable to definitely have more performance overhead than $flag=0 due to the extra method calls to next() and key() on the result but potentially be better for readability or working with generators. There's many proposed ways to solve that problem (adding int $flag=0, any_item(iterable, callable($value, $key)), etc.), so I'm leaving it out of the RFC Thanks, - Tyson
