Here's my list.

Minor issues/ general code cleanup:
1. eliminate '//' style comments
2. fix indentation

More significant:
2. Add support for array conversion in-out
3. Add support for set-returning functions
4. Add support for argument/return-value polymorphism
5. Incorporate recent improvements in function caching (ala PL/pgSQL)
6. Add documentation
7. Add regression test support
8. Modify for new ereport syntax and nested error contexts

Most significant:
9. Use PHP embed API instead of the PHP CLI (command line interface)
10.Fix license
