1) Distribution woes need to end. With the work Greg's been doing lately on PHP_Archive/Phar, that's very close to being attainable now in the physical 'getting PECL'd extensions out to people' sense, but unless people are running CLI or CGI or have access to their own php.ini they still can't do much with those extensions. So we have to seriously consider how to recommend extensions to hosts, other than by shipping them with the PHP core.
Steph, Greg In interests of clarity for all, can you explain what you anticipate will change for PECL with Phar/Pyrus for Windows and non-Windows?
