As Marcus already replied on this part and as I agree, I'll leave out
any comments:)

This is already supported (in PHP4). Simply use array("class", "method")
for the first argument instead of array($instance, "method").

thekid@friebes:~ > php -r 'class Foo { function bar($arg) {
var_dump($arg, $this); echo "--\n"; }} call_user_func(array("Foo",
"bar"), "static"); call_user_func(array(new Foo(), "bar"),
"non-static");'

string(6) "static"
NULL
--
string(10) "non-static"
object(foo)(0) {
}
--

$this is NULL for the call via array("Foo", "bar") - meaning this method
has been called statically.
