There is no definitive order for the tasks since some can execute in parallel. I therefore think trying to show these in an order is going to be confusing to the user and I'm not sure this is a good idea.

Hi RP, thanks for the review, yes, the parallel tasks may confuse user, but is it possible to mark the parallel tasks, is it easy to do ? I will drop this one if not. We'd probably need specific new API to be able to do this and I'd prefer not to add that unless there is a pressing usecase... |
