This article is a good read to sum it up:
Hi, "not going too much into details here" First, [lease do go into details, this is exactly what it is about. I can'tpeven begin to fathom what you think autoboxing has to do with variable order on string functions. Second, that article might be a lot of things, but "summary" is surely the worst way to describe it. "Semi-complete, semi-outdated rant covering every current and past flaw in PHP" might be a better one. And lastly, if you're suggesting a "startsWith" method on a proposed String Object, that still has nothing to do with an Autoboxing RFC - it's step 2 or 3 after the language would have Autoboxing.
