Watching out for a scalar typehints feature for round about 10 years without knowing about this internal list, I always was wondering what can be so complicated to implement it, because I already evaluated some different ways how to do this for my thesis. I already thought about a political reason for that. I'm with you that your Dual RFC is the right solution to satisfy the needs of all of the three mentioned groups in my opinion as well. I would give a clear +1 to it, but I don't have any voting karma yet! Regards -- DerOetzi
