I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood. I thought the thrust of the  
design was that it would become possible for landowners to return  
objects that overlapped their parcels even if the center of the root  
prim wasn't on their parcel. This comment makes me think that you may  
mean that you're talking about returning objects that crossed parcel  
lines automatically. I think THAT would be a very bad idea, because  
there are a LOT of places where neighboring landowners have a common  
build with a common theme without joining the land itself in common.  
If that's the case then I would like to join in objecting to it.
