Description

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 220

I discovered that the @Stepwise annotation can't be inherited and to solve this problem
I wrote my own annonation and replaced all occurences of "spec.getFeatures()" by "spec.getAllFeatures()"
in a new version of the org.spockframework.runtime.extension.builtin.StepwiseExtension.

So a solution would be maybe another boolean for the annotation f.e. like @Stepwise(inherit=true)
that takes care of these already mentioned function calls.

Research direction

Start with the @Stepwise annotation and org.spockframework.runtime.extension.builtin.StepwiseExtension, then compare the existing spec.getFeatures() calls with the proposed spec.getAllFeatures() behavior. Done means inherited stepwise behavior is supported, including a clear choice for whether an annotation option such as inherit=true is required.
