The approach I took was this:

return array_keys($arr) !== range(0, count($arr) - 1);

FWIW, this might not work for arrays with missing indices like [0 => 'a', 2 => 'b']

I personally would appreciate a function like you proposed.

This is why the exact specification - and name - of any proposed function needs to be considered carefully.

In many cases, what you actually want to verify is "is this a pure list / vector?" in which case you might *want* that array to return false. A naive version of which would be "$arr === array_values($arr)".
