This rfc targets php.next (which is a safe move as this has BC break albeit would require some questionable code), but the langspec was agreed to be based on 5.6 and document how that works. So even if we accept this rfc, and remove the multiple default case, wouldn't we still need to document the current behavior in the spec (maybe mentioning that it will go away in php-net)? -- Ferenc Kovács @Tyr43l - http://tyrael.hu
