Actually, yes, I did. I'll have to read through some of that stuff. Thanks for the link!

The omission of the semi-colon is not related in any way, shape, or form to the short open tag. It works completely independently of that.
I'm well-aware of that.... it was for illustrative purposes and further discussion only.
It also is completely irrelevant how many lines you use to type the code, nor how many lines of PHP there are. This is perfectly valid code: <?php echo 'foo' ?>
See above.
I do not foresee this feature disappearing, personally, but I'm not involved in making that decision.
While we may not be directly involved in the ultimate decision, it still doesn't hurt to mention that it's probably not a Good Idea[tm] to remove the short_open_tags option. -- Daniel P.
