Currently pydoc on X.sm gives:
---
sm(x, y)
A static method

I concur with Mark Shannon. The root problem is that Python functions and
built-in functions have different behavior when assigned as class attribute.
The former became an instance method, but the latter is not.
If wrap builtin open with statickmethod, the repr of open will be something
like "staticmethod(<function open at 0x7f03031681b0>)" instead of just
"<function open at 0x7f03031681b0>". It is confusing. It will produce a lot of
questions why open (and only open) is so special.
