What I'm saying is this kind of behavior needs far more serious reasoning
than the very naive assesment you're making above.
I mean that with all due respect. Just wondering if there is another take
on this from anyone else?
I think the current behavior is most appropriate one for var_dump() (and
array casts/get_object_vars()). It's the same behavior as if you had
manually defined getXXX() methods or used __get().
If you start marking function calls, you get new problems like handling
getters that throw exceptions or have side effects ("the code behaves
differently when add a var_dump()?!").
