Then when applying, if we get FAILED-CHANGE, - we can just move on to the next property. The implicit dependency - relationships in the absence of this combinator is a good default, as almost - every defproplist will want that. But we might want to make this combinator - implicit in DEFHOST. +- It might be useful to have a restart for the case where an attempt is made + to apply a list of properties containing some ``:LISP`` properties with a + POSIX-type connection which applies properties up to but not including the + first ``:LISP`` property in the sequence, to get as much work as possible + done without violating any dependency relationships (``SEQPROPS`` already + handles wanting to apply all of the ``:POSIX`` properties in the sequence). + But maybe this is unnecessarily complex -- wouldn't it be better to just + fail and fix your deployment definitions?
