I would very much like to see this as well.

Would this also allow you to open multiple pointers to the same bucket?

For example would this work?

<?php

  $fp =3D fopen('php://memory/foo', 'w+');

  file_put_contents('php://memory/foo', 'data');

  rewind($fp); // would this be necessary?

  echo stream_get_contents($fp); // outputs 'data'


Best regards
