I was also wondering about that. I ended up going for IntlDateTimePatternGenerator,
because ICU has that same inconsistency
(icu::DateFormat and icu::DateTimePatternGenerator).
I think the big argument here is discoverability - if someone is wondering about whether PHP exposes
the feature from ICU, it might be harder
to find it if we name it differently (and vice versa).

Hi Mel,
Thank you very much for working on this! I was bitten by lack of this
functionality a few years ago, and I couldn't find any (good) alternative.
Thus, I'm looking forward to having IntlDateTimePatternGenerator in
ext/intl.
I think it could be mentioned for those who don't open the bug report that
HHVM implemented this class long ago:
https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/commit/bc84daf7816e4cd268da59d535dcadfc6cf01085
Now that I see their implementation again, I'm wondering
if IntlDateTimePatternGenerator is the right name, or we should also use
IntlDatePatternGenerator, which is more in line with `IntlDateFormatter..
Regards:
Máté
