I've seen uses in the wild where file handles are used as array keys (yes, I=
 know, ugly and wrong).

If we were to remove rsrc handle, we should formally deprecate it for at lea=

I'm all for killing it, and I fully support improving the internal API, but t=
he gentler we are with BC breaks, the better.
