Out of curiosity: Do you think disabling the stat cache could be harmful?
If no, why make it an option?
If yes, should we be allowing it?
Follow-up question: What would be the default?
Cache off which might be harmful to some (assumedly bigger) sites?
Cache on which won't fix the bug reports?
If you put the burden on the bigger PHP users by making it default to off you're assuming they
have more rigorous update procedures, I guess. Probably true, just make sure that it is mentioned
prominently enough in UPGRADING.
Ok, I've said my piece :-)
