I had forgotten that attachments aren't allowed. Here are links to

Here's a patch against HEAD that implements the array_get function
previously suggested on this list. I also attached a test suite,
which should go in ext/standard/tests/array/array_get.phpt.
Feedback is welcome.
Independently, someone else had posted the same idea as a feature
request for PHP 5, and if there's interest I can backport it.
40792 Open Wish: Function array_get(&$mixed, $key,
$defaultvalue)
/* Prototype:
* mixed array_get ( array $search, mixed $key, mixed $default );
* Description:
* Returns the value corresponding to the given key if the key exists
* in the array. $key can be any value possible for an array index.
* If the key does not exist, the function returns $default, or FALSE
* if $default is not specified. Also works on objects.
* Similar semantics to array_key_exists.
