I may be wrong (I VERY MUCH hope so!) but I think now there is also  
no way to override/replace the built in menuhandlers for think like  
listboxes and editfields because of the MenuHandler calling chain  
order...

Most of the time it's not an issue but for specialized applications  
having those built-in handlers with no way to short-circuit/override  
them becomes a very big problem with no workaround that I can see  
except writing the whole control yourself!

AND I have written RB apps in the past before those handlers existed  
that did need customized functionality ...

Making the built in handlers call call functions on the controlclass  
that we could override is one way RS could solve the issue though and  
still have the default behavior without reworking the MenuHandler  
calling chain
