I am an avid PHP developer, and I can't believe this actually did get added into PHP5.3. Even when I was a total noob I never wished the language had a 'goto' feature. I don't understand why this needs to be in a scripting language.

I guess now it will be even easier to spot bad PHP code. That's the only plus I can think of.



It's usually pretty easy to spot bad PHP code anyway. Just open it in a text editor.
