Ok. If i did not set defautlt time zone, i get E_WARNING.
Let us set default encoding for htmlspecialchars. It is not posible to persuade 
developers of Drupal, joomla, wordpress, bitrix, ets., and developers of 
modules 
for that CMS to rewrite their code.
I wrote to tech support of bitrix (russian cms). They said that i must use PHP 
5.3.x. They not going to rewrite code.

I understand your consideration. Maybe a global configuration in PHP.ini or 
page 
lifecycle set function could be provided for encoding setting of these 
functions. 
Developers would be glad to handle this setting centrally by a include header 
file 
for each pages.

I have explained that a few times. We can't default it automatically because 
the  
encoding may not match the output encoding. Only the developer knows that. If 
we 
did that automatically it would break even more sites. The sites where the 
encodings differ need to set it explicitly.

Please, fix it.
It is so simple to provide default params. Wy should we put NULL and empty 
string? Where is security problem to not put NULL and empty string if they are 
will be default values of that params?

Code that is currently likely to be insecure, yes. We only make changes like 
this 
when we are forced to for security reasons.
