Hey guys. What are you thinking about adding this feature: <?php function foo() {
    return array(1,2,3,4,5,6);
} echo foo()[4]; // <---- it that // or may be (foo())[4] ? // instead of $var = foo(); echo $var[4]; ?>
I would really like to see everybody spending more time on existing problems and bugs instead of adding more and more doubtfully useful features. <off> There are not more than 3 active members of the community which help developers to deal with the bug reports and in the same time there are tens of internal@ subscribers which are asking to add something. Let's reach certain level of stability first and then start to add more features. I believe as soon as the number of open reports reaches some moderate size, developers might start looking at the feature requests. And every community member can quicken his beloved feature appearance even without writing a patch: - send us new tests I can assure you that to write a small .phpt test and send it to the list would take not more time than to write a feature request. - help us with the bug reports There is a number of problems reported, which are not yet confirmed or cannot be reproduced by developers. Please go over the reports trying to reproduce each one and provide some more data. </off> -- Wbr, Antony Dovgal
