How can end-users choose to use a specific version of PHP?

Right now the only way an end user can choose is by renaming their scripts. For example, if the Admin specifies PHP 5 to be the default, and the user needs PHP 4 for some scripts, renaming the scripts to be .php4 will execute using the PHP 4 handler. We are currently working on a method that allows an end user more control over this as file renaming is rather awkward for a major application. Once this is tested and available, the user’s cPanel should show what he has chosen for default.
