Re: Default __() parameters causes problems

i do agree that this is one of the few remaining inconsistencies
remaining in cake1.2/1.3
all other functions return by default
e.g. in 1.3 the flash() messages now are returned by default, although
scripts/css are inline by default (and therefore echod too).

returning should be the default value in most cases
but i dont think in the __() case this is going to happen :)
at least it doesnt look like it

using the ___() function might be a very neat way of fixing it for
you, though
the overhead is minimal

you should then use the second param though!
function ___($a, $return = true) { return __($a, $return); }
to be more flexible
