In general, the trend is moving towards bundling FEWER extensions in core,
rather than more. Beyond that, this one just does some whacky stuff that
will need a whole mess of proving before I'll feel comfortable with it, let
alone the rest of the people who'd need to have their say in it.
In short.... wish in one hand, spit in the other and see which one fills up
first.
On the up side, living outside of the main source tree I can channel new
features into this extension at any tme, publish a new release, and have it
be compatable all the way back to 5.0 regardless of what version of PHP
happens to be out at the time. That's the beauty of PECL. The only real
advantage being bundled provides is a slightly higher liklihood that an
ISP's build of PHP will include support for it.
