- The ability to call a parent method without loosing the object, so instead of parent::method() do for ex: parent->method().

You do *not* lose the object by calling parent::method(). Never did, never will :)

- Return in constructors. For me seems a little bit silly the need off providing an extra method to do the work and get the error back. $foo = new bar(); $err = $foo->build(); //or something similar if (PEAR::isError($error)) { .. } while you could simply do: $foo = new bar(); // or perhaps something like $foo = new::bar(); if (PEAR::isError($foo)) { .. }

That's been discussed and rejected numerous times in the past... Look it up in the php-dev archives. Zeev
