I made a comment on Twitter today that turned into a conversation with
James, and I figured it would be good to throw it out to the
discussion group and get other people's opinions.

My comment was that I find it unnecessarily onerous to configure FNHib
AutoMapping to exclude mapping of an entity base class (layer
supertype). Currently you need to tweak the automapping conventions
using something like

AutoMap.AssemblyOf<Entity>()
  .Setup(s =>
  {
    s.IsBaseType =
      type => type == typeof(Entity);
  })
  .Where(t => t.Namespace == "Entities");

But it seems to me this is going to be SUCH a common case that it
should just be drop-dead simple to configure this directly on the
automapper. James seemed amenable, and threw up a pastie of a couple
of options:

I pointed out that the API already uses the term Ignore elsewhere, so
sticking with that probably makes sense.  Personally, I think I prefer
the .IgnoreBase<>() option.

What do other people think? Any of those look good? Have better
options?
