Excellent RFC, thank you. However, there is no mention about using static, self or parent as a type (it is possible for an argument). Something like:
class Singleton {

     public function getInstance ( $x, $y): static { … }
}
Maybe I miss it in the discussion? Thoughts?
The possible usage of self and parent is already documented: <https://wiki.php.net/rfc/returntypehinting#differences_from_past_rfcs>. Regarding static, see <http://news.php.net/php.internals/78116>. Thanks :-).
