I thought that was obvious. I prefer not to see this change in 5.x at
all, but in case it passes the vote I would want to minimize the API
damage. Hence the "No" vote and the hedge votes for minimal 5.x API
breakage. This has nothing to do with PHP 6. For PHP 6 there will be
other API changes which may very well affect this.
