static virtual is a keyhole?

In C++ member functions can be static, or can be virtual.
However they can't be static and virtual at the same time.

Currently there's a discussion on both csc++ and clc++m showing that
implementig virtual statics in the compiler would be trivial. And the
functionality is needed by programmers, who currently must use duplicate
functions introducng redundancy.

Looks like a case of a keyhole to me.
