Yes, there is a technical reason. It's the same reason that I split this
functionality out into a separate function instead of continuing to use
the /F modifier. The reason is that in order to call class methods you
have to use array($obj, 'method') or array('class', 'method') syntax for
callback and that quickly becomes ambiguous when trying to figure out if
you were passed one callback or several.
