 > This can be achieved without `create_function()` and without magic
 getters or any other type of hack (see
 https://gist.github.com/johnbillion/a5113d0362fb5238742bf773d3da9c4f), but
 I don't think this belongs in core. It's kind of an anti-pattern, and
 makes code hard to debug and unhook when you've got unreferenceable
 callback functions hooked in.

 nice implementation of `__return()`, thank you for sharing!
