So what's your plan to mitigate BC problems? What about the users who have written their own functions called is_empty() and is_set()? You can't just replace something as commonly used as isset() or empty(). If you really want this functionality, wrap a userland function around empty() and isset(), because the odds of this changing are infintesimally small.

The function empty() seems to be named inconsistently. We say is_null, is_string, is_object so why there is no function is_empty()? BTW isset() is also not in sync :-( I would like to see a function is_empty() which behaves in the same way then empty(), same for is_set() replacing isset(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22737&edit=1
