Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: Why does $_REQUEST exist?
From: mike503@gmail.com (Michael Shadle)

I think this strikes a good balance between backward compatibility...

I would hope though the code for it is very simple, to not add
overhead to PHP. Basically in PHP the pseudocode equivalent would be

if(ini_get('reigster_request') =3D=3D true) {
  $_REQUEST =3D array_merge($_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE, $_SESSION);
}
