OK, do you need me to argue that we should allow pipelines declared in the same library to see each other? It would be incredibly annoying and hard to maintain pipelines if the physical file structure of pipeline libraries were dictated by the logical structure of the pipeline processes (or, to a lesser extent, the nominal structure of the pipeline names). Personally, I would be happy to drop the constraint that atomic step types must be defined before pipelines. The processor can still report errors when it finds atomic step types that are used without being defined, just has to wait until it's read everything to do so.
