I would like to suggest a bump in the minimum required PHP version. The current minimum version is 5.3 which isn't supported by the PHP team anymore while 5.4 only has security support for roughly two more months at the time of this writing.

Looking at some of the largest PHP projects, a minimum of 5.4 or 5.5 is required. I therefore suggest we follow along and require at least 5.5. Any other thoughts and/or opinions?
