I've done some things in PHP4 that butted up against what the language could do with objects. V5 largely moves those fences further out. For example: PHP4 has class functions, but no class variables. This is a distinct lack. V5 remedies that.

As opposed to instance (or object) variables. The PHP terminology calls them class functions and object functions. I think I picked up "instance variables" from Smalltalk.
Putting aside any potential puns, that is.
