Is there a PageElement class, rather than PageObject?

[john-caleb-phillips]

I am currently working with Serenity using PageObject and ScenarioSteps files, not the Screenplay pattern.

In my project I have several reusable elements are appear on various pages. There are the obvious header, footer, and sidebar objects that lots of sites have, but also a few others that are specific to my project. I am unsure what class these reusable page elements should inherit from. I don't want to have them inherit from ScenarioSteps, since they contain no steps. I also do not want them to inherit from PageObject, since it contains many methods that do not apply to these elements. Methods such as open() and callWhenPageOpensMethods() come to mind.

Is there a class that these reusable elements can inherit from that is lighter than the PageObject class, but semantically different from the ScenarioSteps class?

Not currently, but it is a good idea and I had in mind adding a class like this in a future version.
