This is a really good point, Marco. Of course, this would be much cleaner with a set of functions, since $this (whatever it is) is not truly a dependency for any of these functions - they're likely sharing no context or state; they've likely been placed in the class solely to make them available to the template, which is a work-around creating a class dependency for no real reason.
