[Xtend] protected/public extensions not visible to subclasses [message #768259]

Hi,

I noticed if I declare an injected extension as protected or public, it is still not available to subclasses. I think it would be useful if extensions could be made available to subclasses. If the intent is for extensions to always be private, being able to declare visibility modifiers for injected extensions doesn't make sense either..
