Well, the specific example I saw was the extension dir, which is an ini setting. I would argue that pear_installdir could also be an ini setting. bindir does need some solution outside the ini file, maybe, but I think there could be some way to work around that. The reason I am *kind of* arguing against using the registry for these is due to having multiple installations of PHP. I currently have 6, 5 installs and my compiled version, so that I can test things. Dealing with php.ini in that situation is bad enough, adding registry configuration on top of that will make it even a bigger pain.
