This describes the major change with your idea.
What happens if a constant MyClass exists?
Another question is something like this:
<?php
function factory($class) {
return new $class();
}
factory( SomeClass );
?>
To proper support this we'd have to make classes first class elements.
For making this consistent it would make sense to make functions first
class elements. And best drop the $ in front of variables and create a
new language. Everything else becomes a mess.
