I also will miss 'dl' big-time, as I sometimes load in obscure libraries that my webhost does not provide, with their permission to do so, and with the understanding that if the libs cause problems, I have to be ready to live without them. There was a thread recently on Internals about possibly not killing this feature, but I don't think it had much support. The guys making the decisions don't use shared hosts, for the most part, and so few people need 'dl, so they don't feel any pressing need for 'dl' :-( Alas, it's something that has no user-land work-around, really... Though I guess you could use PHP to exec CLI PHP with a custom php.ini to then do whatever it is you wanted to do, passing all the data back and forth from web php to cli php...
