How about using '$noop' ?
In which case, the feature is complete.

Description:
------------
Too often I do something like:
foreach( $array as $key => $noop )
{
// do something with $key only
}
Why not use array_keys? Well, I guess to avoid the overhead of calling a function. It would be super
if we could simply do:
foreach( $array as $key => null )
{
// do something with $key only
}
I am not 100% set on using null, but I will let the community decide on the specifics.
