Thinking some more about it, I kinda agree with the sentiment and I think a rename is much better as it doesn't really hurt. We could add an alias constant instead and provoke an E_DEPRECATED if the old one is used (given we don't give the filter the same numeric value). -- regards, Kalle Sommer Nielsen ka...@php.net -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
