Static Methods in the docs

Hi,

When working on fleshing out the docs I've run into a number of methods 
that should be tagged as static (for example, 
GtkIconFactory::default_lookup() and GtkAboutDialog::set_url_hook())

Right now there's no way to differentiate between a regular method and 
one that should be called statically and it will lead to problems (most 
likely the same support questions over and over and bogus bugs)

The logical solution is to create a way to tag the static methods as 
being static somehow in the docs - either through a &static; entity (as 
deprecated is done) or through messing with the phpgtkdoc.dtd and adding 
a static tag/attribute.  I talked to Scott in IRC about it a bit and he 
directed me to ask here.

So, does anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with static methods 
in the docs?

Thanks,
Elizabeth Smith
