note 54850 added to language.oop5.visibility

PHP seems to be developing its OO imlpementation which is awesome! but yet, it still doesnt support a few things and in this area, i wish it would support access modifiers (visibility) on a class level and introduce the 'internal' access modifier. This could allow you to define a class within a php script that is only visble within there. This is the kind of class that you need to define to do work for another class but it itself is a distinct entity. I dont like having a ton of classes visible outside of a php script, when only a small subset of these classes is to be used.. This is more of a component abstraction above objects but it makes it oh so neater and more robust since clients cannot bind to classes they cant 'see' they can't use the helper classes... Its exactly the same thing as access modifiers on functions within a class... bah! anway!! PHP is coming along beautifully.. won't be too many more releases till i switch back to it fully!
