I would argue that for 90%+ of cases, static *userland* classes are used because of (a) autoloading
and (b) the ability to use private/protected methods..
Neither of those apply to a php extension.
I agree with the others, the static parser class is weird. Either put the static methods on the url
class, or make the parser an instance with options.
