Schematic entry (4th generation) vs. VHDL/Verilog (3rd generation)

Over the past 30 years I've seen languages come and go. I started programming in assembler, and have since graduated to many 2nd and 3rd generation languages. I tend to shy away from 4th generation...

With structured data types, I mean user defined VHDL types. They are reduced to multi dimensional bit-vectors in schematic entry. Entities using record types in port can't be connected in schematic entry. Create symbol file fails with "unsupported type".
