Using php_info_print_table_header() for "Foo: bar" looks odd and out of place, because the whole line is colored. It is also questionable from a HTML semantics point of view, because it does not described the columns that follow. The use of this across extensions is inconsistent. It was part of the skeleton, but ext/date or ext/json already use a regular row.
readline
Provides generic line editing, history, and tokenization functions. See https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.readline.php
Implementation Details
C variables starting with rl_* are declared by the readline library
(or are macros referring to variables from the libedit library).
See http://web.mit.edu/gnu/doc/html/rlman_2.html
This should only be used in the CLI SAPI. Historically, the code lived in sapi/cli, but many distributions build readline as a shared extension. Therefore, that code was split into ext/readline so that this can dynamically be loaded. With other SAPIs, readline is/should be disabled.
readline_cli.c implements most of the interactive shell(php -a).
