Hi,

Indeed I completely misunderstood his indention. Sorry for that...

However I would also prefer to not move such classes inside the utility 
directory. How about adding such new non-static classes with service 
character inside a t3lib_services_* "namespace"? IMHO this would perfectly 
fit the structure in current extbase extensions.
