Unfortunately I found out that such extension exists very recently.
I was trying to search the PECL archive for "registry" and "windows"
keywords, but these brought no results. Only now, when all work was done,
a person on IRC told me about win32std.
Because of this, I would consider merging the code rather
contraproductive. From what I've seen in win32std my module provides far
superior functionality and "merging" the code would mean "replacing" all
the win32std code concerning the registry API. But doing so would affect
the compatibility with existing scripts using win32std.
Therefore I would like to submit the module rather as a standalone
extension fully covering the Windows registry topic. Due to registry
access importance on Windows OS I'd like also you to consider it
to become the part of standard Win32 distribution.
