Description:
------------
I use associative arrays for so many things like  function/method parameters, database records, creating URL's and HTML tags.

I'm looking at tons of array creation code in my application because the only way to create an array is by using the array("key1"=>"value1", "key2"=>"value2") construct.

The following construct would be a very good addition and is also used in other (script)languages:
{"key1"=>"value1", "key2"=>"value2"}.

I sincerely hope there is some way to implemented this new construct. Thanks for reading this.

This was suggested about a year ago too, and we all thought that we should not add this behavior. You'll have to deal with array().
