nope. I just think its something too "simple", too "obvious" and too
"frequent" so it deserves the love of php internals. Having to call
array_filter() and yet a callback function just to check the emptiness
of an element is too much of a hassle and a waste of both - running
and development time.

Actually that's already on my plans but I was waiting some feedback on
implode() first.

Absolutely. I would appreciate some directions on that though. Can I
just follow the template of, say http://wiki.php.net/rfc/traits ?
