By doing what you are suggesting (introducing platform data) you introducing strong dependency between MFD and input piece for no different reason. With the current implementation the parent can be reworked completely without involving onkey driver. I find such clean separation desirable. We are trying to move away form platform data where it makes sense. Thanks. -- Dmitry
