Derick didn't remember, neither did I. Apparently it's another one of these "register_globals" or "magic_quotes_*" directives we'll remove in PHP 7? :D I mean, if PHP 6 is about unicode, why upgrade to PHP 6 and disable it? Just stay with PHP 5 then..Apparently there is a certain amount of users (undefined/undefinable masses) who like to use PHP6 new features (?) without unicode. I guess you're using the "?" to point out that there are no new features (besides Unicode)? :)
