Description

It would be nice if there was a simple annotation that allowed a parameter of a contained component to be exposed as a parameter of the containing component. Currently, you have to create a field and apply the @Parameter annotation, and use an "inherit:" binding on the child component.

Note that the new parameter should appear as a parameter of the containing component (in terms of Component Reference documentation).
