I haven't had a look at the patch in question but from my understanding of
the description above, after the application of the patch the filesystem
functions (ie fopen and friends) should still be able to use URLs.
Effectively it allows finer control over opening URLs.

I would like to think that the OP wouldn't go to the trouble of creating a
patch (for the latest release of PHP no less) for functionality that
already exists! IIRC a request for something similar was made on the list
some time ago.
