Description

ICU4C has a ListFormatter API allowing to format lists based on the convention of each locale.

It would be great to introduce a PHP API based on it.

Other languages have such API exposed as well. For instance, JavaScript has Intl.ListFormat

this probably requires a RFC to figure out the proper PHP API for it.

this probably requires a RFC to figure out the proper PHP API for it.

Generally speaking, it would probably make sense to give ext/intl a more general clean-up pass (especially with regard to namespacing, both for classes and class constants). I believe it internally uses some outdated ICU APIs for the NumberFormatter as well.

I previously considered writing a proposal for the Spoofchecker, but I would love to have https://wiki.php.net/rfc/tagged_unions for that and thus put it on hold, since there is some movement towards having tagged unions.

I think we could expose NumberRangeFormatter too.
