this is old issue #3074 - do you support foreach by reference?

I'm using PHP Version 4.2.2.
Having multidimensional array - $multi_array.
I would like to change the $multi_array from place marked **HERE**

foreach($multi_array AS $multi_key=>$multi_array_item)
{	foreach($multi_array_item["another_array"] AS $key=>$value)
	{	if($value=="asdfg")
		{	**HERE**
		}
		...
	}
}

I have to do it using:
$multi_array[$multi_key]["another_array"][$key]=$new_value

- - - - - - - - 

It would be nice to use "&" to change the $multi_array:

foreach($multi_array AS $multi_key=>&$multi_array_item)
{	foreach($multi_array_item["another_array"] AS &$value)
	{	if($value=="asdfg")
		{	$value=$new_value;
			$multi_array_item["value_have_changed"]=true;
		}else
		{	$multi_array_item["value_have_changed"]=false;
		}
		...
	}
}


Is it possible to implement this to new version of PHP?

Thanks,
