Comment (by TimothyBlynJacobs):

 > IMO no, as that's a potential footgun too; if you accidentally cast to
 true or something crazy. I think it also complicates the API surface for
 no real gain, given `__return_true` already exists.

 Works for me.

 > Note that I'm only suggesting the misspelling here, not the lack of
 permission_callback; while that would be OK, it's a bit of an API
 breakage, and would cause a lot of warnings.

 Ah, I misunderstood. Yeah I'm conflicted about it, I kinda hoped that the
 issue last year would be a "one and done" type of deal, but it has cropped
 up again. I'm not sure if it is worth the noise.
