Comment (by sc0ttkclark):

 Was thinking more (one more try), perhaps absint could have an additional
 variable, so it'd be like:

 {{{
 function absint ($maybeint, $strict = false) {
     if ( $strict && ! is_numeric ( trim ( $maybeint ) ) ) {
         return 0;
     }
 }
 }}}

 This seems like a perfect solution, which wouldn't run the is_numeric /
 trim unless told to do so by the usage of absint($value,true);
