Only one of two behaviours for onUpdateProperties executed?

Hi,My content type my:B inherits from my:A, and I have added a custom behaviour bA for my:A and another, different custom behaviour bB for my:B.

Thanks,

That is the behaviour as currently implemented. So, you have to manually invoke behaviours of super types.

Raise a JIRA issue with an example of how you'd like to indicate that the overidden behaviour should be invoked (it's not always the case that it should) by the framework.
