Andrea, I think this is a good proposal. Slightly worried about the E_NOTICE for things like "5px" + "10px", which I think are probably not uncommon, and would have been better served by a separate E_STRICT, but that's no longer (practically) available. Either way seems like a good idea. Thanks, Zeev
