Perhaps you should consider it? Base64 "just without" padding isn't really
a standard (that I'm aware of), but url-base64 is and padding is optional.
Simply removing padding (in most real-world cases) isn't enough so this
flag only gets you part of the way there. So, perhaps adding two flags
PHP_BASE64_URL along with this padding flag would be really useful for
those of us having to transform a base64 encoded string to a url-base64.
