You are responding for something month old. I am not in the context anymore.

Probably you miss proper graphs here, not such property.

No, test your condition. Come with DTS with exercises this if. You will
see this DOES NOT WORK. This is just no-op, does not perform any useful
work. So test the code that it actually performs what you want it to do.

Look at example-schema or any of my talks with useful references.

Again, not sure, not in context. Patch is not even in the inbox anymore.
