PHP6 will have goto

I know I’ve been hard on PHP in the past, but it looks like PHP6 is going to be a little better. They’re going to remove the insanity that is magic_quotes, register_globals and safe_mode. And as a concession to the several billion non-english speaking people in the world, they’re going to support unicode.

Then, for an encore, they’re going to add goto. That’s right. Freaking goto. They could add something that the language really needs, like closures and first class functions. But no. It’s goto.

Don’t you just love PHP?
