At the risk of saying, "me too, me too!" I want to pass along my support for this RFC. Uniformity and consistency are worthwhile goals; the fewer special cases that exist the fewer things I have to keep in my small brain at once. In particular, this is something I've seen several userland devs ask for ($func()()) and of which I've found myself desirous. Further, this set of changes will likely not -- unlike the oft-proposed "parameter order consistency" faux improvements -- break BC all over the place. Thanks for the work, Nikita. -Daniel
