SHIRLEY S. ABRAHAMSON, CHIEF JUSTICE
¶ 26. (concurring). I agree with the result reached by the majority opinion. I write separately to point out that I believe the majority opinion marks a significant *186step towards overruling Shorewood,1 upon which Edg-erton2 relied in its dictum defining damages.
¶ 27. Rather than leaving Shorewood and Edger-ton to be overturned in small measures by debatable judicial distinctions, I would embrace the inevitable now by expressly overruling Shorewood and thereby recognizing the limited application of the Edgerton decision on damages.

 School Dist. of Shorewood v. Wausau Ins. Co., 170 Wis. 2d 347, 488 N.W.2d 82 (1992) (on motion for reconsideration; withdrawing 168 Wis. 2d 390, 484 N.W.2d 314).

 City of Edgerton v. General Casualty Co. of Wisconsin, 184 Wis. 2d 750, 517 N.W.2d 463 (1994).
