@Geez I'm not sure the last issue you merged into this one is the same issue since this thread was created before 1.27. For me, it's only in 1.27 experimental that I can't water plants. The slots do get watered by rain though.

I’ve also run into this issue and would appreciate you guys taking a look at it.

The problem with the workaround is that you end up with a ridiculous amount of classes. For example, if I want to have 3 camo variants and 3 plate variants, I need 9 classes. If I want 10 skins and 4 plates, I need 40 classes. Sure it’s doable; but it’s a hacky way of doing it.
