Description:
------------
The manual page for array_search() does not say how the function behaves when there are multiple instances of the value "needle" in "haystack".  Which of the matching values' keys is returned?

It's most likely that the first matching instance (searching from the beginning of the array) is the one returned, but this should still be explained in the documentation.
