Hi!

To point that out: I _don't_ want to change the behaviour, which means | $foo['xy'] ?:= 'bar'; would trigger a notice like | $foo['xy'] = $foo['xy'] ?: 'bar';

Then I personally don't see much point in it. Saving a couple of keystrokes IMHO is not really worth it.

Hi, It's like with any other compound operator: A _real_ reason isn't there. But saying "It's not worth it" is something I can live with (even if I don't know how much effort it would take ;)). I just asked myself: '?:' is (a kind of?) binary operator and every other binary operator is available as compound operator, so why not '?:', so I don't have to repeat the variable? Regards, Sebastian
