It's not uncommon in other industries. A company I once worked for tried to get the staff contract of employment changed. In the draft we were sent was a clause stating that anything we invented _on our own time_ belonged to the company. We were also obliged to help them protect the said invention by helping them secure patents on it in the company name etc etc. The laughing could be heard all round the building.
