My idea was that since tokens are parsed from a string it should be easy to=
 write a string back with them.
I do not have an obvious usecase but the idea is doing stuff like

if ($token.is('function')) {
	echo "public $token";
} else {
	echo $token;
}

Am I right to assume that with __toString the same as ->text we=E2=80=99d h=
ave implode('', PhpToken::getAll($code)) =3D=3D $code ?

This would allow:
$tokens =3D PhpToken::getAll($code);
// Modifications on $tokens
$code =3D implode('', $tokens);
