Oh, come on...nobody uses it? Here's an example of how easy your life becomes:

index.php:

Code:

$database = new Database();

// ... some more code

require 'registry.php';
Registry::set( 'db', $database );

somelibrary.php (index.php dispatches this file):

Code:

require 'registry.php';

class Test
{
   protected $database;

   public function __construct()
   {
        $this->database = Registry::get('db');

        // do stuff with the db
   }
}

So, no more global declarations, no more passing through constructors/methods or such. Don't you think this is useful? Ok then, how about some other useful patterns you use and you think are worth delving into? (besides the Singleton of course)
