I also don't think it's a good idea, not even if we split out some of
the functions to new 'extensions'. The power of PHP is that it had a lot
of useful and powerful functions in the *core* and why would you want to
change that? The problem with moving all those core functions to their
own extensions is that they *can* be turned off too easily y hosters and
then just the most simple scripts can break because of some ISP
stupidity (and from what I know most of them are like that).
