I agree it is of seconary importance. To me, using LIFO release order is counter-intuitive, but it's the sort of question that if put to 100 people you'll get a 50/50 split of opinions. Especially since the whole "multiple buttons held at once" scenario is rather unusual we can go with switching the order if others don't see a problem with the behavioural change.
