Simon,
        To be honest if it works, I hope they do not fix it.
My only problem is that my classes are typically not in the same file but
they are extended.

I am going to try that on an extended class and see if I can instantiate a
method from another class in a separate file.

Richard,

yes! at least my example works. i didn't test it any further; i doubt it 
is intended that way.
