My opinion is that static methods should *not* be callable from an
instance, you should need typeof(instance).staticMethod. The current
allowance is misleading.
This should solve some of the issues, but of course, you'd need to
allow
overloading of the method name in static and non-static forms.

I like this idea. Is there a bugzilla entry for it?
I'll add it, if it's not already there.

As Daniel answered previously in this thread, this has already been
reported: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3345
It's different. 3345 is asking to allow overloading of static and
instance methods with the same signature. The new bug is asking to
*require* using the type when accessing static methods/fields.
You might notice in the bug report that I mention this "paves the way for
bug 3345" :)
