Referencing members from companion objects of base class

[fedochet]

Hi!

Should it be possible to reference members of companion objects from the base classes of the current class?

For example:

/**
 * [fromCompanion] - seems correct
 */
open class Base {
  companion object {
    fun fromCompanion(): Int = 10
  }
}

/**
 * [fromCompanion] - ???
 */
class Child : Base() 

---

A clarification: companion objects from base classes are present as implicit receivers in the child classes. The following code is valid, for example:

class Child(val prop: Int = /*Base.Companion.*/fromCompanion()) : Base()
