This might work, still not sure if we really want that in PHP. On one side, it's cool, on other side closures can develop into a very messy code :)
Yeah well .. for the single task of callbacks they are great and prevent a lot of messiness .. I think its messy to pollute the namespace for something which is not intended for reuse .. maybe we need to artificially limit its uses just like for "goto". regards, Lukas
