The only time vertical inheritance makes sense if when you always

Anything more complex than that I would recommend single-table.
My 2 cents.
Vertical or horizontal? With vertical this will still select on the
root, won't it?
The restricting qualifier kicks in.
I'd have to turn on adaptor logging to clarify the exact ordering
(which I might do later today), but if the parent entity is called
'Foo' and it has an attribute 'entityType', entityType plays a part in
limiting the result set (assuming you've set up the restricting
qualifier and awakeFromInsertion stuff)
