Do you think it is worthwhile? I was thinking about putting up my second idea which is to create a new modifier (akin to static, protected, public, abstract...) which would allow for properties to be flagged for copy into a subclass. This would make the improvement (as we've determined that a "change" is out of the question) less obtrusive and purely optional. Do you or anyone else have thoughts on this? Maybe you could help me get it put up there and submit input as to how it might be accomplished? - Alex
