Hi everybody I'd like to propose the introduction of warning when counting objects that can't be counted. The default behaviour is to return 1 for these objects, which can be misleading and hide bugs when attempting to count iterable objects (eg Generators). Adding a warning would alert developers to the issue https://wiki.php.net/rfc/counting_non_countables Thanks, Craig
