Description:
------------
I would like to change array_filter to following prototype:

proto array array_filter(array input [, mixed callback, bool pass_key])

The callback prototype would change to:
proto bool callback(mixed value [, mixed key])

Hey, we have various array functions, and I do believe this can be done in another 
ways, 

so, why introduce this? thanks

Everything that array_filter does can be done with a foreach loop though. Some 
people prefer the functional approach instead though.
 [2012-09-25 03:48 UTC] hradtke@php.net 
Also, the other functions, such as http://php.net/array_map, provide the key.

the problem is not about consistent with other functions, the problem is do we 
really need this?

maybe you should write to internal ML, get some more disscussion? :)

thanks

Supported since 5.6 via the ARRAY_FILTER_USE_KEY and ARRAY_FILTER_USE_BOTH flags.
