Victor Rubezhny commented on JBIDE-1203:
----------------------------------------

in the document http://docs.jboss.com/seam/1.3.0.ALPHA/reference/en/html/elenhancements.html I see that functions can be used in Seam EL... For example: 

<h:commandButton action="#{hotelBooking.bookHotel(hotel)}" value="Book Hotel"/>

if so, the "instance()" in the actor variable is public static method. Why it shoudn't be shown in CA?

Is it wrong to allow the content assistant to show the "instance" method with no parenthesis? 

It was previously added by Alex for the actions: each method is doubled in CA - with parenthesis and with no parenthesis - to simplify it usage in action. This is also because we don't know on how to determine which methods are allowed to be used as action.

> Autocomplete pops up "instance" and "instance()" as options for actor, conversation, etc.
> I'm not sure exactly what the EL spec says about static members, but I  don't think we should offer them as an option in the UI.
