It's always dangerous to introduce a new keyword, as it can/will break BC (i.e what if somebody has defined a function derived(), the parser would choke on that).

I'm personally fine with static, even if it may eventually introduce some confusion.

Perhaps we should just introduce a new keyword? Isn't this one of those few cases where you should? Words like 'derived' and 'extended' are very unlikely function names anyway. More likely people would call them derive() or extend().

FWIW: "function derived()" gives me 0 results on Google code search. :)
