Well, I like it. It's sometimes necessary to share session state with
non-PHP application and this is IMHO a welcome addition to ease the
exchange.
Btw, what is the proper way to signal a problem during
serialization/unserialization? I couldn't figure it out from the RFC nor
the PR and there doesn't seem to be a test case for it.
Return null/false? Throw an exception?
thanks,

It raises E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR currently. I choose it because session
module raises errors. However, I prefer to use exception over error.
I'll create a RFC to adopt exception for session.
Thank you for feedback about tests, I'll add error case tests.

Hi Markus,

I added test and add return value description in RFC sample code.
Serialize function should return "string".
Unserialize function should return "array".
Anything other data type raises E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR, so returning
FALSE would be the reasonable choice to indicate error condition.
To all,
If there is no additional comment, I'll start vote in a few days.
