Selector Inheritance

[chrisui]

Forgive me if this has been discussed before or is in development but I haven't managed to find anything from a quick search.

Could we please have selector inheritance? (@extend from http://sass-lang.com#extend) Is anyone working on this? (is there a fork?) Is there a reason why it has not been included?

My only issue with less ever is that if you really want to write your code with a heavy DRY approach (which in fairness is the main reason you'd use a preprocessor like less) then you can end up with a lot of duplicate code after compiling where you simply wanted two separate classes to share styles.

I use CSS grouping quite a bit for identical declarations w/ adjustments. Adding selector inheritance to LESS would make a huge difference in my workflow.

Yes, I 'third' this. I find myself actually using plain ole CSS when it comes to this.
