The plan is probably increasing the security of PHP, and removing safe_mode is an step to do that, false sense of security is worst than no security at all, unfortunately there are lot of people that believes in the myth that safe_mode actually provides security... safe_mode is one of the worst, ill-concieved "features" of PHP and Im glad to see last of it.
