 ''call'' would be useful in many cases where ''bindTo'' is used (e.g. [[https://github.com/search?l=php&p=34&q=bindTo&ref=cmdform&type=Code|search of GitHub for bindTo]]). A search on GitHub reveals [[https://github.com/search?q=bindTo+call_user_func&type=Code&ref=searchresults|many using bindTo and immediately calling with call_user_func]], which would now not be necessary as they could just use ''call''. ''call'' would be useful in many cases where ''bindTo'' is used (e.g. [[https://github.com/search?l=php&p=34&q=bindTo&ref=cmdform&type=Code|search of GitHub for bindTo]]).
