I just wonder how an end user is going to specify that a link

allows the user to specify wait/nowait for each output link, but
of course this requires an extra field associated with each link.
Tim's last point is IMHO an important one which I personally think might
be part of a better solution to this whole issue of sequencing and
synchronization of parallel links. Where we want to give users control
over the seq/sync of sets of links there needs to be information
supplied to configure the seq/sync process, but this information is not
usually meaningful where individual links are used.
It really only seems to make sense for this level of control to be
provided for the arrays of inputs to the sub and calc records and for
the sequence record, and there we might want to provide additional and
more complex sequencing between the input and output links. It should
become obvious from that particular example that this sequencing and
synchronization between links is really nothing to do with the link type
at all, so it shouldn't be specified through the link configuration.
