If so, I fail to see your point, since the new > syntax will solve that problem. While introducing a whole collection of new problems - such as that we will have now split scope, that you can get in and out many times in the same file.

I don't see any use for it besides promoting bad coding practices. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Software Architect stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ (408)253-8829 MSN: stas@zend.com
