Thank you for this RFC, Nikita. This is a necessary first step in the right
direction.
Even though this is out of scope for this RFC, I hope that moving standard
functions to namespaces will be an opportunity to fix inconsistencies in
parameter order, like:
array_map($callback, array)
array_filter($array, $callback)
and not just an alias under a namespace!
