Inherent Bonus to BAB?

[Quartz]

Would you allow an Inherent Bonus to BAB?

I'm particularly thinking about the effects of multiclassing at non-Epic levels on entry to Epic prestige classes. Consider an Epic prestige class with an entry requirement of BAB +23. If the character took full BAB progression from 1-20, he still needs to be L25 without spending Epic feats. However, the character may well have multiclassed or taken a non-epic prestige class or two with a medium BAB progression, and at 20th level have a BAB of only +15 or so. That means they couldn't enter the Epic prestige class until L35! I'm aware that there are Epic feats to mitigate this, but allowing an Inherent Bonus to BAB seems a more sensible way.

Iterative attacks would still work off the base BAB, of course.

If you are going to prevent more attacks from the feat I see no problem with it. +1 to hit from an epic feat with the addition that it can allow you entry to an epic prestige class quicker doesn't seem very tough stuff compared to some of the other epic feats. Calling it an inherent bonus to BAB doesn't seem to sit right with me for some reason though. I don't know what I would call it.

Calling it an Inherent Bonus - gained via Wishes - limits it to +5, whereas the Epic feat is not so limited. As an Inherent Bonus it can be taken at pre-Epic levels.
