Still, I think you add a lot of complexity because you'll need to keep track of whether or not a key was a string or not. There is no guarantee that all numeric keys were originally a string: [ "1" => "foo", 2 => "bar"] And, for the record, I am not in favor of the original proposal either. I think it's way too big of a BC break like others have said. > Regards, > > -- > Rowan Tommins > [IMSoP] > > -- > PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List > To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php > > -- Chase Peeler chasepeeler@gmail.com
