i think thjis should be integrated in kickstarter, giving the choice (not) 
using docheaders so it will be easy for the devs.

I see no reason for new development and php4. php4 is dead! and imho should 
not supported any more. people should have a good reason to upgrade (nearly 
all providers did that)

New development should use php5 and this doing consequent by using 
private/protected/public aso.
