      This code raises an InvalidStorageParent error.

      class Animal
  include Mongoid::Document

  store_in collection: 'animals'
end

class Dog < Animal
   include Mongoid::Document

   store_in collection: 'dogs'  #=> raises InvalidStorageParent 
end

      Is there any reason we have this restriction? It would be very useful to subclass a document and make it stored in a different collection.
