The problem is, there is not "intended" way of doing it,... many users
may prefer totally different ways of stacking there layers... and you
may have even more (nbd, losetup, etc.) and the same ones multiple
times...

I'm currently looking into these problems,.. but I guess there is no
easy way...
AFAIK Jonas is also looking for a way to generically solve this,.... but
all the other packages (lvm2, mdadm) are in principle also affected...


But I also think, that we should keep for compatibility the older order.


Cheers,
Chris.
