ACK

Btw, I was probably thinking of ScriptedAttribute definitions (not
scripted data connectors) that have all attributes from a referenced
DataConnector available. I'm aware that's not at all the same thing.

The Dependency from data connector to an attribute it references in a
filter template totally makes sense.

Thanks again,
