static imports

In JBoss Rules we allow users to use "functions" in their code, this
currently involves regexp muning to turn it into a static method call.
However
We are getting to the stage where this is just getting nasty. We have
since found that the Eclipse JDT compiler allows you to use static
imports and still  target jdk1.4 bytecode, so we are now thinking of
adopting this to ease our coding. The downside of this means that unless
Janino was able to support static imports we may have to drop support
for Janino in JBoss Rules. So my request is, could static import support
be built into Janino?

Thanks

Mark
