Subject: Negative string offsets

Hi Internals,

What are peoples thoughts on allowing negative string offsets, that return
characters from the end of a string.

Example:

$string = 'foobar';
print $string[-1]; // prints 'r';
print $string[-2]; // prints 'a';

Patch:

https://github.com/lt/php-src/compare/string_negative_offset

Regards,

Leigh.
