The Property proxy implementation still lacks a few object handlers but looks promising so far; personally I find the zend_object_proxy pretty useless, but you might remember, you've been part of the discussion: http://marc.info/?t=128351193900002&r=1&w=2 The Resource and persistent handle factory has been implemented, because I had some serious problems or discovered shortcomings I would not want to live with; but for more exact reasons, I'd have to search the commit log, as I cannot remember them anymore. At last, the problem with integration into core to me is always: This would be available for at least PHP-5.4 maybe even 5.3 while in core it would be, say, 5.6 at the earliest. Anyway, I dont' think man core people are interested in this stuff. Cheers -- Regards, Mike
