Description:
------------
a) When adding user specific entries to php.ini these are not returned.
b) the location of php.ini is not available via a standard function

The combination of a + b makes it almost impossible to have user specific additions to php.ini
So ini_get() should allow to read user specific entries
and/or the php.ini location should be available as a variable or via ini_get


Reproduce code:
---------------
a) 
php.ini contains:
uml2phphome = "c:/Programme/BITPlan/UML2PHP"

<?php
echo ini_get("uml2phphome");
?>

b) 
echo PHP_INI_PATH;




Expected result:
----------------
a) c:/Programme/BITPlan/UML2PHP
b) c:/Windows/PHP.INI on my windows machine
/usr/local/lib/php5.0.3/php.ini on my linux machine

Actual result:
--------------
nothing

we are developing a product and we need that feature badly. The goal is to have our own section in php.ini.

This kind of feature request would be great on any os.
I've discovered the same issue and it would be great to hear a response because it's now some time ago that this CR has been submitted.

I am somewhat surprised to see that PHP can't do this yet. It is definitely something I could use.

In my opinion, it is not desireable to put application settings into php.ini.
These could be supplied in an application specific ini file, instead. I might be
missing a striking argument, though, but it seems to me this feature would
require discussion on internals@lists.php.net and maybe even an RFC (see
<https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto>). Therefore I'm suspending this ticket.
