Subject: Suggestion: echo function(var)[0];
From: tigger.on@gmail.com (Tig)

Would be at all possible to implement this kind of shortcut?

echo function(var)[0];

For example, to print the height of an image:
<?
 echo getimagesize('./path/to/image')[1];
?>

Sure, if you want more than one of the returned array points, this
would not be very efficient, however when you do only need one, it
would be a lot nicer than:

<?
 $tmp = getimagesize('./path/to/image');
 echo $tmp[1];
?>

Anyway, just an idea.
