I'm requesting that the default function arguments for a class method be able to reference the class variable members in it's definition. 

Here is an example of it's use:

class searchclass {

	var $hits;
	var $results;

	function save($filename, $start = 0, $end = $this->hits){ /* <- this returns Parse error: */
		if($fp = @fopen($filename, "w")){
			for($i = $start; $i < $end; $i++){
				fwrite($fp, implode("|", $this->results[$i]));
			}
		}else{
			return false;
		}
	}

	function search(){
		/* ... */
	}

}

$this is in execute process, function declaring is in compile process, 
but you can use a compiling variable:

class A {
   const FOO = 2;
   public function dummy($a = FOO) {
   }
}

sorry for misspell:
class A {
   const FOO=2;
   public function dummy($a = self::FOO) {
   }
}
