Hi Rowan, If you're in a shared hosting, you can't "simply" remove the configuration variable. Relying on extensions or configuration flags to support core language features is very bad. We don't have flags that can turn IF support off for example, why we would have that for annotations? I can bring more cons if you want... like how/when to parse "use" calls in a docblock? I mainly want to address the need of this class: https://github.com/doctrine/annotations/blob/master/lib/Doctrine/Common/Annotations/TokenParser.php
I've exhausted to death pros and cons of every single part. The biggest problem of not realizing this is a core feature and pushing so hard to docblock is that as soon as this is blinded to some people, others will say "oh, so that doesn't need to be in core and can be a PECL extension". Now re-read my email from the beginning about shared hosting, you just entered in an infinite loop.
