Oh.
I think we're going to have to write some documentation on that one
before implementation, or a zillion users are gonna be very very
confused...
If it remains one of those "undocumented function" for any length of
time, expect mass confusion :-)
u"stuff typed in unicode" to allow creation of Unicode strings in PHP5
seems like a Good Idea to this naive reader, if it's easy enough to
code that.
It may even ease the transition from 5 to 6 for some?
Presumably u"foo" would be a no-op in PHP 6 with semantics "on" and
not generate some kind of silly error or something, right?...
