Hi, PHP6 *is* the long run. Regards, Stan VassilevAnd I'm not sure who would actually use 'a.b' and then expect 'a_b', but I have to assume somebody has done that, perhaps consuming an API from somewhere else.OpedID protocol uses dots in query string arguments. The implementations could be broken by the patch. While the "keep arguments as is" behaviour is certainly better in the long run - issues like OpenID should be taken into account.
