I tested this, and found it not to be working.  Depending on $all as
either start or stop dependency affect ordering for both start and
stop.

I've stated before, and can only repeat it.  Please only use $all if
there is no other way to get the wanted behaviour, as it do not behave
the way most people expect. :) It is better and more predicatble to
depend on other scripts.

Anyway, the issue with $all affecting both start and stop sequences is
noted, a test case is written, and we will discuss with upstream how
it should work.

Happy hacking,
