Re: Ordering of steps in a subpipeline

I think your second example is still broken, because it contains a
loop.

Here's your example:

<p:group>
  <p:output port="result">
    <p:inline><doc/><p:inline>
  </p:output>
  <p:identity name="identity1">
    <p:input port="source">
      <p:pipe step="identity2" port="result"/>
    </p:input>
  </p:input>
  <p:identity name="identity2"/>
</p:group>


Here's an equivalent pipeline, with the default binding filled in to
"identity2":

<p:group>
  <p:output port="result">
    <p:inline><doc/><p:inline>
  </p:output>
  <p:identity name="identity1">
    <p:input port="source">
      <p:pipe step="identity2" port="result"/>
    </p:input>
  </p:input>
  <p:identity name="identity2">
    <p:input port="source">
      <p:pipe step="identity1" port="result"/>
    </p:input>
  </p:identity>
</p:group>

So id1<->id2 are a loop, which is an error.

But you surrounding comments suggest you thought the problem lay
elsewhere, in the area of the _output_ of the group, so perhaps I
misunderstand. . .
