May I add nullable types in general to this issue, e.g.:

function f(): ?T {}

f()->m(); // requires null check

I just wrote about this and would love to link your brilliant extension as an example that can help to prevent this kind of mistakes. 😻

This is going to be the main feature of the next release ;)

I just hope that amount of reported bugs will be low after 2.3.3 released today, so we could take finally more features into the next release...

So, I want to start with the original scope here - only parameters. And we'll make a followup ticket for chained calls.

Step by step we'll get to fully functional NPEs inspection =)

Ready, fresh binary pushed as well. Please also note limitations.
