Yup. "static" would just be a normal JS object. It wouldn't be anything 
special. static.foo = "bar" to assign to bar, ibex.log.info(static.foo) 
to get it.

You're right. I don't really see anything wrong with it. If you can't 
trust the code 5 lines down from you who can you trust? :) However, we 
could make the static object read-only after the static script has 
executed if necessary.
