Hi, Stas. This has been on my mind as well. I've considered that maybe
an INI wide setting would be beneficial here. In fact, there are many
places within applications I've worked on where the format for many
DateTime objects are the same. What are your thoughts on that?

I have a question about the internal implementation of PHP's hashtables. I
