Child plugin order is arbitrary if inheritance is involved
----------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1993
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1993
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug

  Components: Inheritence and Interpolation  
    Reporter: John Didion
 Assigned to: John Casey 
     Fix For: 2.0.1


According to the documentation, "When multiple executions are given that match 
a particular phase, they are executed in the order specified in the POM, with 
inherited executions running first."  I assume that the order of the inherited 
executions would be in the order specified in the parent POM, but the docs are 
unclear here.

However, in practice, it seems the ordering is as documented if there is no 
inheritance from the parent.  But if there are plugins inherited, then the 
ordering is completely arbitrary, with the inherited plugins not necessarily 
coming first.  I created a project that runs two plugins, both bound to the 
same phase, with one specified in the parent and one specified in the project.  
The parent-specified plugin does not run first.
