It's true that if we can tell the
method was static that we might be able to do it right. We'll continue
to look into this.

Compilation error "Only functions in the document are allowed"
myCustomFormatter is a static method meant to be
passed to a component. In
writing that I'd assume it was called
out-of-scope--which rarely matters for
statics anyways.
(yeah, I'm making assumptions over how the
component is written and how the
function is written, but aren't a few assumptions
better than an
all-out-block on the functionality?)
And NDA prohibits me from remembering any
discussions that may (or may not)
have taken place about
different/possible/alternate implementations. :-)
