Change of clue, is it appropriate? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

felicitous

'appropriate?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'change of clue is it' is the wordplay.
'change' is an anagram indicator.
'of'+'clue'+'is'+'it'='ofclueisit'
'ofclueisit' anagrammed gives 'FELICITOUS'.

(Another definition for felicitous that I've seen is " Apt".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
