Overriding Equals method in Structs

I suppose, if one's using .NET 4.5, one can use the default implementation as noted in the documentation:

When you define your own type, that type inherits the functionality defined by the Equals method of its base type.

ValueType.Equals: Value equality; either direct byte-by-byte comparison or field-by-field comparison using reflection.
