I feel like I'm really sure that I've seen places in the framework code where functions are called this way, but I'm not sure how to search in there to get verification. It would be really, really nice if the docs were detailed enough that I could get a good sense of whether I'm barking up the wrong tree (of course the docs are wrong or misleading a good percentage of the time, so detail is no guarantee) ;-).
