As can be seen from the reactions, this is very unlikely to be accepted if
proposed.

I think what could be proposed instead is to enable GitHub discussions for
discussing ideas before they are proposed on the mailing list. It could be
helpful for new people to get reactions without a need to subscribe the
mailing list and it would be also easier for searching, linking previous
ideas, tagging people as well as doing quick polls. It could potentially
bring more people to contribute to PHP. I think this could be also good for
the mailing list as it could potentially reduce a bit of volume especially
for things that are constantly repeating.

Regards
