My first reaction would have been supporting the first option. I think I have seen too many useless overrides that were soundling like hiding the dust under the rug. Others contributors in this thread seem to think differently and I have to admit that their arguments sound fair also. Most seem to be easily summarized as "do we trust our fellow DD to do The Right Thing" and not abuse overrides...... So, well, I wouldn't cry too hard if the second option is finally used..:)
