could you elaborate what you mean with this ..

currently (some?) "static" calls from within a method will still result 
in a non static method call ... like parent::fobar()

are you talking about cleaning this up?

also do you remember my complaints about the fact that static and 
inheritance dont mix well, since alot of things are done at compile time 
for performance reasons .. does this also fall into this topic?
