Does this include internal function type errors? e.g. $ php -r 'var_dump(mt_srand("99999999999999999999999999999999999"));' PHP Warning: mt_srand() expects parameter 1 to be integer, string given in Command line code on line 1 NULL If not, please make these exceptions rather than E_WARNING. We need consistency here.

Changing a Warning to an Exception is a much bigger deal than changing an Error to an Exception. While an Exception *can* be caught, the fundamental nature of it is that it is *fatal* if it is not caught. So you would be changing an advisory warning to a fatal error. There might be cases where this would be sensible, but this has nothing to do with a) changing Errors to Exceptions (which has already passed) or b) changing the hierarchy to add a Throwable interface (the subject of this thread).
