I have submitted an RFC draft for including the proposed feature from this issue. Thanks to everyone who helped me in this process. It’s my first RFC, so I apologize in advance for any mistakes I’ve made in the process.
This is proposed for a future PHP version after 8.4.
I think the general idea is sensible.
Only focusing on UTF-8 is also a good design decision.
It took me a second to figure out what the $context parameters purpose was as you introduce the constant later in the RFC.
However, I will echo another message in that this should be an enum because it is a new API.
Forcing the user to specify the context in which this function is called also seems like a good idea.
Best regards,
