Shape Shift and clothing

[Wanderer]

I'm wondering whether the Affects Body Only (-1/2) for Shapeshift, assuming the typical "body control" SFX a la Mystique or DC's Martians and innate superpowers, would make sense for the typical Superheroic campaign. On one hand, the character can grow realistic-looking imitations of clothing from his own flesh. And he doesn't really need to carry equipment or Foci regularly. OTOH, such faux clothing is part of the shapeshifter's flesh, and can only be removed or changed by using the power. And even a Focus-less superhuman with innate superpowers may occasionally need to carry and disguise equipment on his person. Assuming the basic Shape Shift (Sight, Hearing, Touch), any humanoid form, No END to maintain form, Imitation package, Persistent optional. I wonder since many iconic superheroic cosmetic shapeshifters' powers would actually change the body, but not clothing or carried equipment.
