I guess it's a question of what the uA data is - I sometimes store very
valuable data in uAs, but of course up until now never on an @auto
file, in fact typically not in any @<file> type.  So I'm not sure what
people would store on nodes in @auto files, but if for example it was
notes on things that need to be done to the code, and if for example
one off the notes was "remember to replace my google password with
prompt for user input before release", and if the note vanished and you
subsequently forgot, you might be saddened by that :-)

Silly example, but it seems in general people won't want data to only
persist sometimes.  Of course you did have to make uAs persistent :-)
I think persistent gnxs would have done it for Kent.

So just general interest, what happens when you delete __init__ from
class A, do its uAs get assigned to __init__ in class B?  And then
where do B.__init__'s uAs get assigned?

I really should try the code :-)

Cheers -Terry
