Yes, you are right, I didn't see that use case. So at least the 
setAppropriate() pair should be re-added though I don't like the idea of 
having two different approaches to set a page (in-)appropriate.

I also had this idea in mind... we could have "steps" (group of pages) which 
could hold pages that can be set (in-)appropriate.

Best regards
