Paul's proposal is some part does not make sense because it allows weak type hinting, which should not be used if you need type hinting. The whole idea about type hinting is definition of strict interfaces, not loosely based one. That's just my opinion, which admittedly I feel fairly strongly about.
It's a hint, not enforcement. IMHO hinting about something is not strict, it's a suggestion. Cheers, Rob. -- http://www.interjinn.com Application and Templating Framework for PHP
