I can live with that, though I again question why anything needs to
be automatically registered. It sounds like we were lazy, and so now
we have things happening automatically that can confuse people.
That pretty well sums it up. :-)
Question: if the system automatically registers a priority param,
and someone sets a priority with it, then what happens when the
component returns a different (possibly hardwired) value? Does MCA
base ignore what was set and use what was returned? I assume that is
the case...
If the component re-registers a priority param with a new default
value, that new default becomes *the* default (overwriting the prior
default value that was registered).
Is that what you're asking?
