Hi. With the recent BC with regard the locking of the constructor's signature for subclasses, what is the expected mechanism for allowing a subclass to have additional parameters?
You can always supply them and use func_get_args() / func_num_args() / etc. to read them. It would seem that the limitation restricts the capabilities. I'm not a purist. Software development is a compromise between purity and getting the job done in an efficient and understandable manner. By allowing undocumented parameters to the constructor (due to the enforced signature), this would seem to break things on a different front (I can't docblock non defined parameters for examples).
