The base component follows both a) and b) rules and the designer 
instantiates it. The only problem is that (with MyChildComponent opened 
in the designer) the designer shows only components dropped at 
MyChildComponent, hiding components dropped at MyParentComponent.

BTW the fact that the designer needs to be able to instantiate the base 
component forces the developer to turn abstract methods into virtual. It 
could be smarter here too. There are more issues connected with this 
"blind" instantiation of the base component, but let's focus on the 
thread's title.
