I think foreach would be more useful if we could work not on a copy of the array but on the array
itself, at least as an option.<br>
In my mind a statement like:<br>
foreach ($array as $key => &$value)<br>
should allow us to modify the array elements.<br>I think it would be nice, as 1) the
programmer explicitly asks for a reference to the 'real' value and 2) it is backward
compatible
