> Users continuously report issues regarding the order of plugin executions: 
> repeating that *"this order is not expected to be guaranteed inside a phase"* 
> is not convincing for them. (notice that perhaps telling that it *cannot* be 
> guaranteed nor really controlled may be more convincing...)
> The algorithm used to calculate the order of executions performed by Maven 
> needs to be documented:
>  - declaration order in the POM
>  - inheritance merging from parent POM,
>  - merging of profiles and other plugin containers,
>  - the order of executions of multiple executions in the same lifecycle phase,
>  - the sorting by plugin that happens when multiple goals are defined for the 
> same plugin,
>  etc.
> based on Model Building
