just bumping this up, i guess someone would have to do it ;)

foreach ($array as $key=>list($val1,$val2)) { .. }
foreach ($array as list($val1,$val2)) { .. }

the list should never take key values, the list should be only allowed
in the right hand element making the following throw out an error:

foreach ($array as list($k1,$k2)=>list($val1,$val2)) { .. }

since afaik keys of tables are only 1 dimensional (not arrays).

It's in TODO already :)
Someone might implement it, but I guess it's not anytime soon.

you haven't read the previous posts, have you?

I think it's a general problem with list() construct, that you cannot
use it everywhere you can use an L-value (or however you guys call it
in PHP)

foreach ($arr as $key => $val)

sure, I know I could use this way but I don't find it nice at all.

It's for someone else to decide whether to add this to 
the language, but until they do you can achieve the same
effect with:

$arr = array(array(1, 2), array(3, 4)); 
foreach ($arr as $narr) {
    list($a, $b) = array_values($narr);
    echo "$a, $b\n";
}

BTW--it would have helped if you had explained what 
results you were after and not just the syntax you wanted. ;)
