Re: Re: PHP Unicode support design document

I firmly believe though, that all outputting functions should act the same. It's the same problem otherwise as with __toString(). I would use __toString if it wasn't just restricted to echo and print, but right now it's pretty useless to me. I hope that behavior can change in a major version update (5.1, 6.0).
