Child attributes should not be "included" if parent is "included"

When a parent attribute template is excluded, but included at the element level, all child attributes are also included. It makes sense if a parent attribute is set to excluded all child attributes should also be set to excluded. However, if a parent attribute is set to "included", some child attributes may or may not be excluded. Instead of "including" them all, maybe they could remain excluded and the user can choose which to include.

    Or maybe the user can choose if for a set of parent/child attributes if the property isExcluded when it is set to false is propagated or not. Setting it to true should of course propagate as a child has to be excluded if it's parent is.

    If the parent is Excluded, then the child's Excluded property should be ignored: the child will automatically be excluded. If the parent is Included then the child's Excluded property should be used to determine whether or not it is excluded. And so-on down the tree.
