There are several features in PHP that are "not implemented [yet]", including
roughly 13 DOM classes. Well, they are sorta (but not really) implemented.
How should we deal with this?
Two types of "not implemented":
1. New things, like classes, methods and functions. Easier, and more straight
forward
2. Changes, like new/different function parameters
Considering some of this stuff is several years old, I'm guessing much of it
will _never_ be implemented (e.g., these bogus DOM classes exist as of PHP
5.0.0) so instead they confuse people. But unfortunately these bogus classes
are defined, so I suppose they technically exist.
Some of this stuff is difficult to find but I imagine an exhaustive list would
give people something TODO, but personally I see most of these as bugs in
php-src. Thoughts?
Here are real world examples:
------------
<?php
$a = new DomConfiguration();
$a->getParameter();
?>
------------
PHP Warning: DOMConfiguration::getParameter(): Not yet implemented
------------
------------
<?php
$a = new DomLocator();
echo $a->lineNumber, PHP_EOL;
echo $a->relatedNode;
?>
------------

<?php
$a = substr_replace('foo', 'foo bar', array(1,3), array(2,4));
$a = substr_replace('foo', 'foo bar', 0, array(0));
?>
------------
PHP Warning: substr_replace(): Functionality of 'from' and 'len' as arrays is
not implemented
PHP Warning: substr_replace(): 'from' and 'len' should be of same type -
numerical or array

------------
<?php
$a = filter_has_var(INPUT_REQUEST, 'foo');
?>
------------
PHP Warning: filter_has_var(): INPUT_REQUEST is not yet implemented
