Marko A. Rodriguez commented on TINKERPOP-1669:
-----------------------------------------------

"unfinalizing" is not a problem. However, can you please tell me your use case (why do you want {{EdgeVertexStep}} to be customized?). (for my own interest as I think I can tell you more which can help you).

> GraphStep, VertexStep and PropertiesStep are all not final, so I was surprised to find that I couldn't extend EdgeVertexStep. In the end I had to duplicate the entire class....
> If there are concerns about simply making this class non-final then it could be designed for extension by making most of the methods final (except toString), but the leaving the class non-final.
