Could this be considered to be included in PHP? What's the benefit of having this made inside PHP itself? It's perfectly possible to share a common interface across projects even if not native to PHP. It's quite easy to create a PECL extension for that, that would suites your need regardless of PHP version, but again, I don't really see the benefit of doing that in C, at the core of PHP.
