Multiple the number of your projects by the thousands. And then do it again. And again.

Now ask yourself "Will all those people read the emails to tell them how to fix their sites, or will they scream at WordPress?"

Well if I have to redo a few projects, thats fine but I will be missing the backwards compability, if thats the case.

Well anyway, lets see what happens until then

Backwards compatibility is not the only thing to search for. The goal must be as well to ensure forward compatibility for actual plugins.

@juanvillegas: Yes, the Singleton pattern is OOP. But when talking about object-oriented design patterns, it should be considered, that Singletons are used in a way, that the testability of an application is not affected. If this is the case, most people rethink the anti-pattern statement.

I totally agree that WP would be much easier to handle for developers if proper object oriented methods would be used. If there is a way to maintain backwards compatibility I think this is the way forward.

No doubt, as many themes and plugins etc. that there are and after all this time it would finally be nice to have just one coding standard.

Since WordPress cares about backwards compatibility AND still supports PHP 5.2.4, this won't happen until and unless they decide to break backcompat.
