Comment on Create a simple custom module by Fido

Does upgrading Magento remove any changes you have made to the catalog.xml file?

Thanks for the nice explanation.
What is the downside of overriding too many core files, is there an acceptable limit of working modullary by extending the core? Is using events observers methods easier and more flexible way of extending?
