I do think it would be problematic, and a new API is a must (either the one
Nikita asked about or the current one). Let's consider a reflection-based
static analyser: in PHP 8.1, it would report the incompatible
user-land return types as a very serious issue all of a sudden, while in
fact it's not the case yet.

(now I see that Nikita answered the same)
