It seems that a static function is always called static,
even with $test->staticMethod()...

Simple Test:
<?php
class Test
{
    public static function testMethod() {
        var_dump($this);
    }
}

$test = new Test();
$test->testMethod();

Test::testMethod();


outputs twice(!) a notice about the undefined variable $this
and null.

Interesting, and good to know. Didn't think of that.

Travis: Would this still work for you though?
