Collision (touching) detection

I want to check to see if a given sprite is touching any other sprites- when they are not moving. Getting info on sprites that are colliding or passing through each other is nice and easy.
But on command I want to ask, 'Who is sitting on top of me, or is butted up against me'?

Is this still collision detection?


*Edit. bad question on my part. With the correct combination of setCollisionActive, setCollisionPhysics, and setCollisionCallback, detecting if two still sprites are touching is quite simple.
