Would it be possible to add an optional argument specifying an object
reference to all of the functions that take a function name as a parameter
(array_walk, usort, etc).

This would allow you to write:

mysort($a, $b, $obj) {}

and call:

$foo = usort($bar, 'mysort', $foo_object);

This at least lets you avoid setting global variables for mysort() to access
before calling usort.
