Does FPC support class constants, and if it doesn't, are there any plans

Have a look at
http://www.freepascal.org/faq.var#extensionselect
The question would be "what would make this possible?"
What about class vars?
Same answer.
Some form of classvars would make it possible to do something I do in
1) the Lazarus LCLComponent to set a class variable. (now I'm forced to
do that on every instance of that class or a derived class).
2) Store debugger configuration like is done for lazarus debuggers.
(now I store a seprate config instance in a stringlist based on the
debuggerclassname)
3) there was another case, but I don't recall it atm.
Anyway I worked my way around it, but classvars would have made this
easier. I do realize that providing patches is the best way to get
something implemented, but since my workarounds, there is no big need
anymore.
