I'd like to see the vote re-run (1 week?) with the changes in place. I
didn't vote because I expected it to be restarted. I would have voted -1 on
the current proposal.
Also, is it possible to add a notice/warning if any of the removed config
settings are set to a non-default value?
We should also have the defaults be the same as for older versions of PHP,
otherwise it's a BC break. That is:
session.sid_length=32
session.sid_bits_per_character=4
Better settings should be documented and in the default ini files, but not
be changed till 8.0 IMO.
I apologize for this feedback being so late.
Thanks,
