It would be nice if a deployment order using the depends attribute could be set up that works across deployment types (ear, jar, rar and sar).

Currently we have a rar that depends on a sar (that contains a config manager) that depends on another rar. I know it is possible to specify the order by prefix, or to create a deployment manager specific to the application, but a depends attribute would be a much better solution.

It also seams that there isn't a clear deployment configuration dependency step for rar files.
