Here are a few related feature requests (with summary):
#14285 - Wants strict mode, similar to:
'option explicit' in VBScript
'use strict' in Perl
#14405 - Wants 'require strict argument' option, that
affects all PHP functions. The name E_TYPE
is suggested.
#18214 - Wants warning option for assignment inside of an
expression. Possible runtime option of
assignment_inside_expression = true if in strict
mode.
How possible would it be to create an optional strict
mode in PHP? This might help "strict" programmers feel
more comfortable. error_reporting(E_ALL) is a start,
using === vs == too. Some functions, like in_array(),
have strict options now as well.
