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

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. :)
