Wouldn't it be nice if there was an optional "LOCAL" argument for this fn so that you
could get an (associative) array of the vars in the same scope as the get_defined_vars() call, but
no others?
This would be useful inside a user-defined function. Suppose you extract() some $result vars from a
db query row, process some of them, add one or two new ones, and then you want to return the lot
from the function: rather than having to explicitly define an array, you could just do:
return get_defined_vars(LOCAL);
