Detached splitters in a ContentPane when attached to a BorderContainer

Description
Context: My application extends the content pane. I do this so that I can add behaviors that my app needs without impacting the basic functionality of the content pane.I have used the recommended dojo pattern for doing this and - until dojo 1.4.2- the class was instantiated and was working as expected: It attached to the border container, splitters could be added and removed, and so on.
Starting with 1.5 and using this same class (without a line of code being changed) the results are quite different: When this class is attached (with splitters enabled) to a border container, it results in the splitter being detached from the pane. Basically the splitter moves but the pane does not. Obviously something has gone wrong in construction. I have checked the rendered objects by using inspect element in Firebug. Sure enough - splitters are not attached to the pane.
I notice that the BorderContainer? has gone through some significant changes in 1.5. I am wondering - what has changed to cause this behavior?
I have not attached the test which demonstrates this functionality but I will do that in the next day or so. It is repeatable and consistent. Stay tuned.

I don't know what you mean by "attach other layouts (tabs, accordions, etc to a content pane)" or "resize the page layout". In any case, looking forward to seeing your test case if you are still having an issue.

OK, looks like this is working for you now by calling this.inherited().
Here is what I found. I was over-riding the ContentPane?'s resize method to do some inner work on the page layout. In 1.4.2, calling this.inherited(arguments) from my resize method would not resize the page layout correctly. So I removed it.
However, in 1.5 not calling this.inherited(arguments) has the effect of a content pane being detached from it's splitter. And this seems to be the only effect resulting from not calling this.inherited(arguments) from my resize method. There may be others, but I haven't found them yet.
BTW - I had to create my own ContentContainer? which extends dojo's ContentPane? because - at the time - it was against dojo's policy to attach other layouts (tabs, accordions, etc to a content pane). Now that the policy is relaxed my code has had to change accordingly.
Otherwise - its looking good.
