Any chance this could be done in the form of an interface, instead of a magic function? Evert Dmitry Stogov wrote:
We probably should support this, but not only for __toString(). Objects may also have internal get() (not __get()) and cast() handlers that should be supported too. Also usage of cast() in context of array offset don't say what do we like "int" or "string". Thanks. Dmitry.

It allows to use objects that define __toString as indexes to arrays. What do you guys think about this, should we add it or stay with the old behavior that didn't allow objects as indexes at all. -- Best regards,
