I agree with this, but
feel that because this is coming so late in the DITA 1.2 cycle and because the
DITA 1.0, 1.1, and up until now DITA 1.2 specs have been silent about order of
processing issues, that if we are going to include this in DITA 1.2 that it
should be a SHOULD rather than a MUST.

I agree with this too
and make the same comment about SHOULD rather than MUST in DITA 1.2.
