We already have a bunch of RFCs about strict typing in PHP:

So I personally am not sure we need yet another RFC on the topic - given
that we discussed previous ones multiple times.
You are right, as part of the moving from gist to RFC I'll try and
contact the authors and see if they are still interested in this
topic.
Friendly recommendation: Keep the RFC and all discussion tightly focused
on adding optional return typing for callables, but ONLY for things that
are already type hintable as parameters. Trying to expand beyond that
will run right smack into the ancient battlefield of strict typing
discussions, and the ghosts of brave souls that have fought and died
upon it. :-) I'm pretty sure that would kill the proposal in OT chatter.
