Lambda functions in PHP?

What’s new in PHP 5.3.

When I heart about the new PHP 5.3 feature – the lambda functions I was really surprised. Yes really after we have in JavaScript such a powerfull tool, why not having it in PHP. Other new feature, waited so much, are the namespaces.

Anonymous Functions?

The anonymous functions is really a functional programming language feature such as scheme. There are lots of talks about the functional nature of JavaScript, but PHP was really different.

What about anonymous objects

I’d like to see anonymous objects, yet again like in JS, in PHP. This is really powerfull, I hope more programmers would like to see such features in PHP.
