p.s. in defense of my pipe dream, Dries was calling for innovation and crazy ideas for core... he was also talking about ways to "eliminate the developer". maybe this isn't one of the "killer features" he has in mind, but all of us CS geeks would sure think this is cool. ;) sadly, the amount of code it would require to make something like this possible in core is enormous, so i don't see it happening for D6, if ever...
I hear the pipes in Oak-town are of high quality :P I've been polling folks a bit, and the "PHP is holding us back" meme is a very interesting one. Of course, this may very well be related to the discussion on PHP4 vs. newer versions. Apple maintained an internal version of OS X on Intel for years, and then came out with it and it quickly went into "Just Works" mode.
