There are test cases for it in HEAD.

Is it possible to give a more fleshed out example (some
pseudo-code would be nice) of markup inheritance? I still don't
understand it.

Examples of where proper inheritance works better than borders.
Say:
I have BasePage
that has MyBorder
MyPage extends BasePage, thus all components added to MyPage are
actually added to MyBorder.
The effect is that:
* if I wanted to define my messages for all pages by using the
default resource mechanism (providing a properties file),
BasePage.properties is never found as it is not part of the component
hierarchy. MyBorder.properties works, but imo is not as nice as
BasePage. Having proper inheritance, where Java inheritance matches
the component hierarchy, this would work (or should work).
* If I would define a form on BasePage, any form components on MyPage
would not participate in the validation/modelUpdate game, as they are
not part of the component hierarchy. Again, this is something that
should work when having markup inheritance.
Conclusion: though borders are nice for some things, they are in the
way of anything that needs component hierarchy, while the effect we
seek by using borders usually is to create abstractions that have a
hierarchy meaning.
