We talk about a call like Interface.staticM(), but we never talk about the

static import explicitly. So if someone does a static import on an interface, you suggest that the compiler should see only the static methods declared in the interface and all the static fields declared or inherited from inherited interfaces (for backward compat.) ?

I would certainly expect that what I can static-import, I could also invoke directly, yes.
