Ones again E_ALL is for development. For example to move PEAR code to PHP 5.
It is not for running legacy apps. IF you guys want i'd be ok with adding a
new mode say "E_RUN"...
You think that - I think that. After Brian Moon's response I went and checked what the INI files distributed with PHP actually say.
ini-dist is set at E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
ini-recommended is set at E_ALL
I'd guess that's why Brian reports seeing E_ALL enabled on web hosts; they're advised to use the settings in ini-recommended, after all.
(No I don't think we need E_RUN - we just need to rethink this.)
