A lot of functions in PHP 6 are able to take both binary and Unicode strings and act differently when they are passed different types. I think this is going to be the biggest source of confusion for people migrating to PHP 6 and as such I think it is a good idea to get this cast in as soon as possible to people can start to make their code PHP 6 safe. I am hoping that a typical PHP 5 application will only need a couple of binary casts to run perfectly under PHP 6 in Unicode mode. Allowing that same code to run unchanged in PHP 5 makes a lot of sense. -Rasmus
