Ironically enough you managed to miss the last closing ), enforcing
the point of this not being a natural syntax.

Furthermore, without reading the RFC, is this the same as
foreach($array as $a =3D> $b) {}
or
foreach($array as $e) {
list($a, $b) =3D $e;
}

or.. ?

that really doesn't look like something PHP should support imo.
