This is actually a very good idea. I had to put a hook into the opcode handler
for static method calls to get the same result which is not really elegant. I
was waiting for this feature for a couple month.
Also I found out that the names of the static methods are already lowercase
when it comes to the handler, i don't know if that is fixed in the meanwhile.
