Most interesting things for me:
* PHP is getting the yield keyword (i.e. generators and coroutines), which many other languages have had for a while.
* A sensible and simple built-in password hashing API
* Error when using the deprecated mysql extension, which should hopefully get more people moving to PDO (e.g. WordPress: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/21663 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/21663 )

- rmccue 13y agoI'm trying to push for that WordPress ticket, but it's unlikely that we'll get any significant traction for a while. The database class in WP (apart from being fairly horrible) is a huge component to make major changes to like that, and we have to consider backwards compatibility. Here's hoping it gets merged in the next 5 major releases. I'm not holding my breath.
