Description Stephan Herrmann CLA 2012-01-31 15:44:50 EST 
I just realized an undesirable asymmetry: while a client may pass a base object *into* team using declared lifting, the team cannot return the base (using implicit lowering) in a similarly easy way.

Thus, mentioning a base imported base class should be allowed for the return type of a team method.
