I am beginning to agree with you on that. Although I need both a sorted list of groups and a hash for looking up what is in which group to do the homegrown thing, it is not so big a stretch to go from the orcish manoeuvre to a group sort on the same basis that handles the topological versus circular dependency scenario safely.
