Simple RFC ideas that could make it into PHP 8.1?
Guessing that's what you meant? [Updated code](https://github.com/thinkverse/php-src/pull/1/files), that still passes the test cases and removed the unnecessary `check` `max_lte` and `min_lte` zval`s.

What I always dreamed of PHP 😎 (IMPORTANT!)
I know there are such experiments, but it's unlikely to become a part of the language any time soon :(

What is your #1 PHP feature request
Scalar objects has a prototype implementation since at least 2015: https://github.com/nikic/scalar_objects/issues/20

Alternatives to Magic Methods?
For the love of god yes please yes this 1000x. I'd like to throw in scalar objects too.

Why does PHP not have object-oriented strings and arrays? Will it be added in a future version
Nikita Popov tried to solve the problem with this extension, but it never got wide support. The problem is that without users asking for this feature, Jetbrains and psalm/phpstan will not integrate it. But w/o their support, users cannot not even try the extension as everything will be shown as error.

Should PHP9 standardize naming conventions throughout the language?
These as it would remove the need to even care about the old function names which would exist for B/C purposes. We'd then be able to use primitive types as objects with functions to do all their manipulation as needed.

Which inconsistences of PHP annoy you the most?
It's been possible for quite a while but you have to enable a custom extension: https://github.com/nikic/scalar_objects and create an implementation of the class wrapper. I made one quite some time ago which is probably very incomplete: https://github.com/RikudouSage/scalar-objects.
- What third-party extension or library would you like to see included in php as default?
What are some alternatives?
When comparing php-src and scalar_objects you can also consider the following projects:
php-docker - Docker Official Image packaging for PHP
pecl-php-operator - Operator overloading for Objects
Rector - Instant Upgrades and Automated Refactoring of any PHP 5.3+ code
RfcCodex - Notes on PHP RFCs, and topics that occur repeatedly on PHP internals
varexporter - A powerful alternative to var_export(), which can export closures and objects without __set_state()
swow - Coroutine-based cross-platform concurrent I/O engine.
ext-ds - An extension providing efficient data structures for PHP 7
msphpsql - Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server
psl - 📚 PHP Standard Library - a modern, consistent, centralized, well-typed, non-blocking set of APIs for PHP programmers
Safe - All PHP functions, rewritten to throw exceptions instead of returning false
