Is there a way that you'd suggest? First of all, TIL some cool things =
about "(array) $foo" and how VarDumper uses that, so thank you! =
Secondly, I believe the casting syntax is the best user experience and =
would be a good addition to the language, so is there any other way at =
all to maintain something like VarDumper's functionality without using =
the casting syntax? I'd like to find a way to not distrupt too much of =
what's out there, while also adding value to the end user.
