I don't think we need this, since all the interface constraints need to be 
satisfied for an interface to used in a given flex algorithm, I don't see that 
the ordering of the rules is important.

Maybe the text in the two flex-algo drafts which are going to progress and be 
published shouldn't imply strict ordering.
