RB autoselection of polymorphs

If you have a method selected in the Class Browser, and then select a
superclass or sublcass, the polymorph, if present, is not automatically
selected.  But this automatic selection happens in VW's RB.  Why doesn't
Dolphin's RB do this?

This is a very helpful, time-saving feature when one is quickly looking up
and down a hierarchy, studying polymorphic context shifts.  Can we put this
on the list for D6?

Something that comes close is to right click on the method and click on
Inheritance Chain.  It doesn't show subclasses, but I still find it pretty
useful for that sort of browsing.

Or when switching to a sibling class.  Or indeed any class with the "same"
method.  It's been requested before (a long time ago), but I think it was one
of the small but obviously good ideas that has somehow slipped through the
cracks.

Right.  I remembered that case after I sent the message.  In general, it
works, if the method is there.

  Or indeed any class with the "same"
