a general request

The wordpress API is excel·lent for doing what it is designed for, but it is so much rigid, you can’t do nothing else. I think hundreds or thousands of PHP coders are crying for what they cannot do (at least I am). For the next major release could be possible to call functions that return an array of info so we can play with it?

For putting a list to each author’s feed on the head element I have to modify so many core functions (bad) or copying them and then modifying them (really bad).
