> I would like to see a parameter added to the tiles definitions which would 
> allow the scope to be changed.  Currently, the scope of a tile definition is 
> only for the current tile where as I would like to make it include all sub-
> tiles.
> I have a layout which includes a top banner, a left menu and the content well.  
> With the current scope, I have to create a tile definition for each tile if I 
> want to use tile parameters within the sub-tiles.  If I have 1 content tile 
> which is used from 5 different pages, each requiring different navigation and 
> top banners, I have to define the 5 master definitions, then 5 definitions each 
> for the left menu, the banner and then the content.  This is a total of 20 
> definitions that will have to be defined.
> On the other hand, if I could change the tile scope to include sub-tiles, I 
> could then have just the 5 master definitions.
> If there are sub-tiles on a sub-tile which also requires different values, the 
> definitions could get carried away very quickly.
