I've wished for this on many occasions and think it'd be really useful, as long
as it could work with methods as well:

$mapped_array = array_map(I18N::translate::function, $array);

For what it's worth I guess it could just return [I18N::class, 'translate'].

Also for keeping consistency and avoiding new keywords wouldn't it fit better as
::function instead of ::func?


Best regards.
