Ilia AlshanetskyI personally find array extremely clear, in recent weeks I had to do A LOT of JavaScript work where the array syntax works in a manner you suggest for PHP and its a massive pain. It does not make for a very clear code. I think the syntax you propose is extremely confusing and we should stick to what we have right now.If someone does not like this new syntax, he can stick to array(). It is in no way an argument to refuse the new syntax addition.
