Ability to remove page from page field by ID

[adrianbj]

Short description of the enhancement

It would be great to be able to do:

$page->pagefield->remove(nnnn);

rather than having to do:

$page->pagefield->remove($pages->get(nnnn));

Why would the enhancement be useful to users?

Mostly because of consistency with the add method which lets you use the ID directly.

Thanks @Toutouwai - I'll close this then. I am not sure that Ryan's suggestion of a selector eg "id=123" would really be that helpful - it's just another option to remember.

I guess the main reason is this: "An index and a page ID are both integers, so remove() can't support both."
