Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Typed array declarations

> My largest concern is that this proposal substantially overlaps with the =
reified generics RFC, which is being held until after the current code free=
ze in late August or early September at the earliest.

round parameterized types, variance, Reflection, runtime enforcement, infer=
ence, and type identity. I think we should avoid committing PHP to a separa=
te set of array-specific rules before the broader generics proposal has bee=
n discussed. Otherwise, we risk either constraining the generics design or =
ending up with two parameterization models that behave differently.

plus: we may need to use turbofish syntax like `array::<int, Product>`
to avoid issues with the parser.
