Hi,

I would like to add two new PHP versions to the bugtracker, which can be
used for target version for feature requests.
Currently filling that out is mandatory, so we have a bunch of feature
request with "random" target versions (usually either the version used by
the reporter or the latest version for which the reporter wants to have the
fix against).
What do you think?

Hi Ferenc,

I think that's a good idea. It will help to have more accurate targets 
with almost no cost - it's just the matter of adding two more elements 
to this array:

https://github.com/php/web-bugs/blob/master/include/php_versions.php#L15

This would probably require description somewhere. Many of bug fields 
(or bugtracker possibilities in general) are already misused or just 
ignored and we should note that next-minor/next-major are meant for 
Feature Requests.

Thanks,
Maciej.
