Will method overloading by method signature be implemented in php6 or
even php 5.3?

Example:

<?php

namespace xyz;

=20

import core::TestClass;

=20

class Test extends TestClass {

    public string function test(integer $int) {

        return "Hi";
    }

=20

    public integer function test(string $string, integer $int) {

        return $int;
    }
}

?>

I think this would be a very big advantage and would help developers to
write better code.
