[Lazarus] What's this mean?

[fluisgirardi at gmail.com]

I think that isn't needed add this note to release notes. Add
inherited <yourmethodname>; when you is overriding a method is a good
practice of Object oriented programming (to me) in environments that
have a lot of changes in a little time (like development releases of
Lazarus like 0.9.29). I forgot the inherited when overloading some
Loaded procedures some time ago and on some versions it works and on
others not. So when I adopted this practice I don't have more this
kind of problem. This case is isolated because this is my second
TComponentEditor that I do, and the first time that I override the
AfterConstruction procedure.
