Dont understand ->owner behaviour for TabbedNotebook

Hello,

a strange thing I discovered using the visual builder and Prima version
1.12. If setting a child's owner to be a TabbedNotebook object, when
calling ->owner from the child I get.

in SomeChild

print ref $self->owner;
print ref $self->owner->owner;

 "Prima::NoteBook"
 "Prima::TabbedNoteBook"

I believed the tabbed notebook inherited the various methods and props,
at the moment I'm trying to encourage widgets to register themselves
into the notebook.

onCreate {
my $self= $shift;
my $notebook = $self->owner;
my $tabset = $notebook->owner;

$notebook->insert_page;
$notebook->attach_to_page( 0 , $self );

$tabset->set_tabs( @{ $tabset->tabs } , 'This Pagename' );

}

Feature , bug or has my brain turned to jelly?

Thanks

AB
