Description:
------------
There is a function array_change_key_case but not array_change_value_case. This should be part of the language.

Something like this:
/**
 * @brief Returns an array with all values lowercased or uppercased.
 * @return array Returns an array with all values lowercased or uppercased.
 * @param object $input The array to work on 
 * @param int $case [optional] Either \c CASE_UPPER or \c CASE_LOWER (default).
 */
function array_change_value_case(array $input, $case = CASE_LOWER) {
	switch ($case) {
		case CASE_LOWER:
			return array_map('strtolower', $input);
			break;
		case CASE_UPPER:
			return array_map('strtoupper', $input);
			break;
		default:
			trigger_error('Case is not valid, CASE_LOWER or CASE_UPPER only', E_USER_ERROR);
			return false;
	}
}

We already have way too many array functions which makes it hard to find relevant ones in the docs. We decided not to implement new ones, which can be implemented trivially in userland code.
