Can we have a java.lang.Double.parseDouble(string) method, like the java.lang.Integer.parseInt(string) method?

It would be helpful for each of the classes that implement Number to have
a parseXXXXX(string) function. Then we don't have

Integer.parseInt(argv[0])

but

Double.valueOf(argv[0]).doubleValue();
