#50442 [NEW]: __construct Method Chaining
From: michael dot patrick dot mcnally at gmail dot com
Operating system: Windows Vista
PHP version: 5.2.11
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: __construct Method Chaining
Description:
Method chaining is very impressive when done properly. For example:
$location = new location();
$location->city('Boston')->state('Massachusetts')->getMap();
In JavaScript, it is possible to chain from the constructor, like this:
new location.city('Boston').state('Massachusetts').getMap();
Where in PHP, the equivalent would be:
new location()->city('Boston')->state('Massachusetts')->getMap();
Is there a reason why the __construct of a class cannot return itself for
method chaining like its' methods? When I try, I receive a Parse Error.
Thank you!

#50401 [NEW]: Array Key Data Type Conversion
From: michael dot patrick dot mcnally at gmail dot com
Operating system: Windows Vista
PHP version: 5.3.1
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: Array Key Data Type Conversion
Description:
It is necessary that I check to see if an array key has been set by the
code. Such as is with this code:
foreach($array as $key => $value){
if(is_int($key)) echo 'the code assigned a key for this element';
}
How can I achieve this with the following array?:
array('1'=>'Yes','0'=>'No');
PHP converts the '1' into 1 which leaves me no detection for user assigned
keys. This is bad form.
