I personally don't see a point in "considerable codebase change" just for the sake of syntactic prettyness. It doesn't add anything to the language you couldn't easily do otherwise, and the benefit just doesn't justify the investment of effort in this. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ +972-3-6139665 ext.115
