Subject: RE: [PHP-DEV] Missing __toString() part
From: dmitry@zend.com ("Dmitry Stogov")
References: <795156743.20060603134212@marcus-boerger.de>

We probably should support this, but not only for __toString().
Objects may also have internal get() (not __get()) and cast() handlers that
should be supported too.
Also usage of cast() in context of array offset don't say what do we like
"int" or "string".

Thanks. Dmitry.
