Before the days of MVC when I was using webforms I would created a few layers of templates so I didn't repeat common HTML.

I thought I could do something similar in the Hybrid Framework.

Currently we have the Master template

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<IMasterModel>

and everything inherits from that.

I wanted to create the following structure:

Master
-- Home
-- Page With Side Navigation
-- -- Content Page
-- -- Some other page that will have a side nav
-- Gallery

so that I can put my subnavigation rendering code on one template and have some of the others inherit it.

I thought I'd be able to use:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<MasterModel<Menu>>

for my Page With Side Navigation template as that would give me access to some the common 'Content' properties I need on the page but I can only get it to work using

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<IMasterModel>

otherwise it just complains about the type of model being passed in.

Can I do this in v7? I was able to do it in v6 by using the BaseModel.
