Unicode math symbols as operators in PHP6?

Noted over on Sara Golemon’s blog today. Can we expect this sort of thing to be in future PHP code?
var_dump(¼, ½ ¾); // float(0.25) // float(0.5) // float(0.75) var_dump(1 ≤ 2, 2 ≯ 3, 5 ≠ 6); // bool(true) // bool(true) // bool(true) var_dump(3 × 4, 15 ÷ 5); // int(12) // int(3) var_dump(1 « 3); // int(8) /* Your font may be too small, * but that's a skull and crossbones */ ☠('aka die/exit');
Well, no, not really – she implemented it just for fun, but it’s an interesting idea, and face it – who doesn’t want to be able to use all the keys on the Space Cadet Keyboard?
