Yes! A treaty clause "Auto give away all new techs to partner". Can be
cancelled at any time.

IMO the technology sharing in a union doesn't fit very good in the current
game concept. The advantages maybe very big. Wider changes to the current
tech related behaviour are necessary, which forbids making it an option.

A better place for a union is the teams concept I think. I must admit I
never tested teams.
