DrupalStorageStreamWrapper static function getMimeType Abscract function call to $this error

This is probably a better solution, but there is still a potential problem.

public static function getMimeType($uri, $mapping = NULL) {
Drupal_set_message(__FUNCTION__);
Drupal_set_message(func_get_args());

if (isset($uri)) {
$use_uri = $uri;
if (isset($this)) { //Set $this-uri, Ignore in Abstract function;
$this->uri = $uri;
}
} else $use_uri = isset($this)?$this->uri:NULL;

$storage = _storage_core_bridge_load($use_uri);
return $storage->mimetype;
}

I don't think so. It is retrieving the MIME type, and since it is being called as static function at times we can not use $this while it is a static function. Only when called from an instance of the class object. Therefore we need to tell it to use the $uri argument if there is no $this, however, if $this->uri and $uri is null it will still error out. So that part of the code will need to be addressed. I am guessing a return value of FALSE when both "uri" values are null, but before the call to storage_core_bridge_load() with a NULL argument. Then we need to validate that the calls to ::getMimeType() will be able to handle the false return value.
