Accessing CurrentPage from a static context

Ever needed access to the CurrentPage object inside a static method or property?
As long as you have a valid HttpContext this code will do the trick

PageBase pageBase = HttpContext.Current.Handler as PageBase;
string pageName = pageBase.CurrentPage.PageName;

Nice sample! However, I'm a bit confused - aren't these types of posts supposed to be published on labs.episerver.com? Or what's the purpose of blogs here at EPiServer World as opposed to those on Labs? Cheers!
