PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: explode() with empty delimiter
Description:
------------
Splitting a string into array of characters is not easy in PHP. It must be
done using preg_split (slow) and with a lot of parameters:
$chars = preg_split('//', $str, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
Feature request: allow function explode() to split string into characters.
Usage:
$chars = explode('', $str);
Rationale: there is counterpart function implode() which allows to use
empty separator:
$str = explode('', $chars); // works
