Does that mean you want to take up a
 - strict RFC-and-after-3months-discussion-before-commit policy
  (i.e. killing the scratching-an-itch spirit of PHP)
 - "I'm going to commit this patch tomorrow" mail to internals@
  (i.e. killing "I need this functionality, maybe others do to" spirit of PHP)

or what exactly do you mean by that?

I would much rather have a development branch which ""everything
goes"" (like it used to) and then make it up to the release manager to
merge the features he wants in "his branch" (DVCS style)

And which of Ilias patches are you referring to? The original one
(which is identical to the patch I sent in November 2006) or the
"fucking eyh, I need to please everyone so this can be in 5.3 - but
still got rejected" patch?

You didn't even list the mbstring patch.. that was discussed and as
far as I remember everyone thought it was great idea, just not in a
stable branch.
