Dear Internals and Wiki Administrators, Please accept my apologies for my previous email. Upon further consideration and architectural review, I realized that a helper like "get_favicon()" is indeed much better suited for user-land frameworks rather than the PHP Core itself. Instead, I would like to officially update my Wiki account request to focus on a critical, low-level feature that I have been actively developing: a Unicode-safe string masking function named grapheme_mask() for the ext/intl extension. As you know, masking multi-byte strings and emojis without breaking grapheme clusters is a common pain point in PHP. This function will leverage the ICU library to provide a standardized, high-performance, and safe way to handle this in the core. I have already developed a working C prototype and written several .phpt tests for it, and I am ready to start the RFC process for grapheme_mask()..
