Hi!
It is not compile time issue. You will have little or no performance hits in such case. I do use a lot such approach - put dodefault() even when you know that parent class don't contain any code in this event. This is very useful for case when in future code will be added to that event in the parent class for more generic functionality - you will not need to review each child class for checking if it contains dodefault() for that event/method.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
