RAII Pattern in PHP

I just learned PHP has a GC based on reference counting. I thought, that is, RAII pattern can be adopted in PHP programming. Here's a proof of that concept:

<?php

class Guard
{
    private $callback;

    public function __construct(callable $callback)
    {
        $this->callback = $callback;
    }

    public function __destruct()
    {
        call_user_func($this->callback);
    }
}

If you have the class above, then you can make PHP call the $callback immediately after an object is destructed. Say, destruction is occurred when an object is free-ed by unset():

<?php
require_once 'guard.php';

$guard = new Guard(function () { echo "unset!\n"; });
unset($guard); //=> unset!

PHP has function scope of variables. So, the Guard class also works in the situation like bellow:

<?php
require_once 'guard.php';

function foo()
{
    $guard = new Guard(function () { echo "destructed!\n"; });
    // ... do something ...
}

foo(); //=> echoed "destructed!" after function called

It's useful when you want to be assured some operation will be surely executed after dispatching a function; You can temporally set some global setting to local value (eg. time zone), execute chdir to somewhere and affect nothing out of the function.
