[Bug 1170927] [NEW] RequiresSTA attribute is not inheritable

 

Public bug reported:

The attribute RequiresSTA (used for marking tests requiring running in
the single-threaded-apartment) should be inherited.

This would allow setting up an abstract base class for a certain tests
that require STA, rather than marking all derived classes as
RequiresSTA. The alternative of specifying it at the assembly level is
too broad for my liking.

As of 2.6.2, RequiresSTAAttribute is not inherited.

I have a patch available with tests, but couldn't figure out how to
submit a pull request.
