New Comment:
This is because {} is supposed to be used like
{$var} or ${var}
i.e. {$ is parsed as var. To escape "{$" use \ before $. "{\$"
http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php
{config::$Image} will not be parsed as variable. Just like
// Won't work, outputs: This is the return value of getName(): {getName()}
echo "This is the return value of getName(): {getName()}";
Supporting this will introduce confusion. IMO.

Update: It seems like class static variables are not parsed inside any quoted
string. And because heredoc is practically a quoted string, they are not parsed
inside heredoc too!!!

Description:
------------
A class static variable is not recognized & parsed inside heredoc. Instead the
class name & scope resolution operator is passed in the string variable & the
static variable name is tried to be parsed as a Independent local variable.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class config
{
public static $Image="/images";
}
class layout
{
public function writeLogo()
{
$text = <<<ABC
<img class="Logo" title="My Logo" alt="Logo"
src="{config::$Image}/Logo.gif" />
ABC;
echo($text);
}
}
$sample = new layout();
$sample->writeLogo();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
I expect the following tag to be outputted:
<img class="Logo" title="My Logo" alt="Logo" src="/images/Logo.gif" />
Actual result:
--------------
<img class="Logo" title="My Logo" alt="Logo" src="config::/Logo.gif" />
