Missed last time round that the comment needs updating.

It still is a recursive design though, just flat. That one word was
saving a paragraph :|

I think the easiest way to describe what the code is doing here is to
show the recursive version in the comment and then hope for inspiration
in describing how that maps onto the search list.

I can see that angle yes. Maybe the just add a second sentence saying something like "To avoid having recursive code to do this recursive update we build a flat list of dependencies in a depth first search manner."?

Regards,

Tvrtko
