Comment:

 Replying to [comment:11 costdev]:
 > Yeah, let's close this one as `maybelater` so it can be picked up, with
 unit tests, if use cases are found.

 It is worth noting that polyfills for `array_key_first()` and
 `array_key_last()` were added in [52038] / #45055 even without being used
 by WordPress core.

 I believe the benefit here is pretty much the same as in that ticket:
 > Including a polyfill would allow developers to take advantage of the new
 functions and write consistent code regardless of a site's PHP version.

 Now that WordPress has
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/references/php-compatibility-
 and-wordpress-versions/ PHP 8.1 compatibility] (with exceptions), I think
 it's time to reconsider this.

 With 6.4 Beta 1 coming in a few days, moving to 6.5 for discussion.
