Name Static Methods For Static Import

One of the JavaIdioms.

When creating static methods in JavaLanguage 5 or greater, give consideration to how invoking the method read if the caller uses StaticImport.

Good names for static import:

• java.util.EnumSet.allOf()
• java.util.EnumSet.noneOf()
• any of the org.junit.Assert methods
• java.util.Arrays.asList
• java.util.Collections.singletonList

Not so good:

• java.util.EnumSet.of()
• newInstance

On the other hand, if the combination of the class name and method name proves more meaningful, suggest that callers not statically import that particular method.
