Howard M. Lewis Ship closed TAP5-173.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I'm afraid this is too vague to be fully actionable.  It would be useful in terms of specific components, and specific properties/parameters.

>                 Key: TAP5-173
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-173
>             Project: Tapestry 5
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 5.0.15
>            Reporter: Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Almost all core Tapestry 5 components have all methods with package visibility, something that prevents subclassing them to build new functionality over already existing ones or to change some specify behaviour. 
> Other related problem is access to parameters in subclasses, as they need to be private and the core components don't provide getters.
> The only solution found by me and other people in the Tapestry mailing list is to copy the original component code and then apply the needed changes.
> There is a discussion about this at http://www.nabble.com/-T5--About-core-components-subclassing-and-methods-with-package-visibility-to18104118.html.
