Description:
------------
As register_globals does create som security issues, and therefore is recommended to be turned off. I think it would be for the best if it was removed completely in the future.

It also seems like register_globals is causing a lot of trouble for coders new to PHP (at least on the forums I hang). And I think many of them would disappear if register_globals were to be removed.

I'm not saying I wan't an immediate removal, marking it as deprecated in the manual and removing it in a few versions would probably be the best.
