Comment (by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 trouble with a filter library meant to replace that of php is, if php
 doesn't fix a security hole in their own library (as happens on occasion)
 or if hosts don't upgrade php (as happens very frequently), then you leave
 security holes behind that you cannot easily fix.
