Interesting. I call one approach I'm taking Shoop. Makes the base data types objects and wraps enough of the SL to perform interesting chains of transformations. I've enjoyed using it in the 8fold platform enough that I went ahead and made it public.

I do think Rasmus is participating in the direction more and we'll see PHP evolve in interesting ways moving forward. When PHP7 came out he gave a lot of talks about the history and his participation and what's happened to the language and core maintainers over the years.
