    ChatAnchor Inheritance

    Before I go down a rabbit hole, I thought I would ask if there are any issues with creating my own chart anchor by inheriting from ChartAnchor?

    * Will they be properly saved/restored with a drawing?

    * When implementing Clone(), should it be a deep/shallow copy?

    * Internally, will there be any issue with NT slicing the object back to a ChartAnchor?

    * Would DrawingTool.Clone() also need to be overridden for a tool that used the new Anchor?

    * Any other gotchas?

    In general, it seems like it should work, and if it does would provide for a nice way to store Anchor related information without creating parallel structures for each anchor.

    Actually this is a non-starter, as I now see most of the methods are not virtual so its generally not going to work.
