All these ideas rely on the use of a single class/interface for declaring
constants.
I don't like this workaround to what SDK1.5 will solve.
My constants are in the right places, the classes to which they logically
belong.
I suppose with 1.5 I will be importing these constants to one class which I
can then make available as you suggest.
I think EL should have syntax to enable it to access statics
