I happen to find 'flag inheritance' a good and sensical feature in 1.8, much as I am sorry to hear that it breaks your workflow.

I would actually take this a step further and suggest that 'inheritance' apply not only to flags, but also to due dates. It is risky to have a project with a specific due date, and its own actions free-floating without any deadline. It could indeed be a good idea have the due date of the project applied by a default to all children actions. The user may later choose to set an earlier due date for one or more of the children (but not a later one, obviously, which would be a contradiction—and I realize therefore that such a feature would require some new underlying logic).
