Hey @endel,
There is a syntax file update_syntax.php
which explicitly disables the filter
extension as it's not one of the most commonly used ones. Every extensions adds to the PHP syntax file which causes it to become slower and so only a select few have been left.
You can uncomment the relevant line and re-generate the syntax file for your purposes. I haven't come across the filter
extension in many projects so I prefer to keep it disabled for the time being.
I also think it's better that we don't add in everything but keep it slim and have instructions on how to add more things.
I agree with you guys, thank you.
@marlun Thanks for chiming in, good to hear what others think as well.
