Do you have any ideas on how to allow this to be at all useful with inheritance and overriding? If the patch is left to where these examples would all return 'A' and something wasn't put in place to allow overloading a static function AND forward on the original called class
What do you mean by "overloading a static function"? What you are trying to do?
to the parent class then usefulness of late static binding is php is going to be diminished.
Usefulness for what?
