I can't comment on other people's proposal, but I tried clarifying this one as it's one of my own. Indeed any object encountered during the traversal will emit a deprecation, I added a possible message to it. I've also provided a function that allows recursively traversing arrays/objects to apply get_object_vars() and produce a "clean" array that can be passed to http_build_query. Hope this addresses the remark. Best regards, Gina P. Banyard
