To lighten up some discussion here, I would like to ask what features or changes you would love to see in future PHP versions? We know that in recent versions a lot of nice adjustments were added, but I bet most of us dreams for more.

I personally would love to see types on inline variables, at first even not strict. However, I don’t know if it’s remotely possible with how currently the language is implemented.

      Mainly because you’ve got to setup PHP to be debuggable in the first place.

      And setting up PHP is already a hassle. When a dev has to set up php in about 5 separate ways just to figure out which one is actually debuggable, then PHP has a problem.
