vertical inheritance

Is anyone using:

1) vertical inheritance with a to-one relationship in the parent?

  or

2) vertical inheritance two levels deep?

If so, I would love to see the plist files for the parent and child entities. I'm trying to make Entity Modeler's vertical inheritance wizard legit, but I personally don't use vertical inheritance at all, and the EOModeler manual is pretty light on specifics regarding the actual modeling of them.

If you can't send the actual plists, I'm interested to know:

* Are non-class attributes supposed to be flattened into the subclass just like class attributes?

  * ... non-class relationships?

* Do the flattened attributes need to be the same name as the attributes from the parent class?

* When you vertically inherit two levels deep ... WTF flattens? Do you flatten from the top level parent and only new attributes from each class along the way? Do you (can you even?) flatten the flattened attributes from your direct parent?

Basically, I just sort of despise vertical inheritance :)
