    name = "John Doe",
    age = 39
};

Thank you for your interest in PHP and for submitting a feature request. Please
be aware that due to the magnitude of change this request requires, it would be
necessary to discuss it on PHP Internals list (internals@lists.php.net) as an
RFC. Please read the guide about creating RFCs here:
<https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto>. If you haven't had experience with writing
RFCs before, it is advised to seek guidance on the Internals list
(<http://php.net/mailing-lists.php>) and/or solicit help from one of the
experienced developers. 

Please do not consider this comment as a negative view on the merits of your
proposal – every proposal which requires changes of certain magnitude, even the
very successful and widely supported ones, must be done through the RFC process.
This helps make the process predictable, transparent and accessible to all
developers.
