I agree 100%.

This particular item has been in the works since before I joined the team
and I've given them a bollocking out over it.  You may have noticed
UConverter and a few other changes which WERE proposed to internals@ prior
to inclusion in HHVM and the implementation of those features were changed
based on the feedback received from this group.

I'm on PHP's side, guys.
