XxxUtils constructors

[Tomasz Pik <pi...@ais.pl>]

(maybe this idea has been discussed yes, if yes, I'm sorry for
this email).

Why the XxxUtils classes cannot use singleton pattern, something like:

public class XUtils {

   private static XUtils _singleton = new XUtils();

   private XUtils() {
     ;
   }

   public static XUtils singleton() {
     return _singleton;
   }

   public static boolean doUtilityFunction() {
     return true;
   }
}

They'll have private constructors but people may use them inside
Velocity (as context.put("XUtils", XUtils.singleton();).
