Pierre Padovani commented on ATLAS-1690:
----------------------------------------

Two questions on this work:

1) Can a RelationshipType inherit from another RelationshipType?

2) If yes for #1, how does that affect tag propagation?

My use case: Given a set of metadata that belongs to a particular customer, 
where we use a classification with an attribute that contains the customer id, 
we would want that classification to propagate to all related entities. If we 
had a relationship type that was generic in nature and specified that the 
classification for the customer propagated, it would be nice to be able to 
specify sub-types that provide additional behaviors.
