Yes, disabling the 'magic guessing' is the primary goal. I just wanted to test the waters before embarking on a patch. Will continue the conversation once I have a patch ready that solves our problem.

IIUC you're not talking about disabling the entire dependency analysis but instead just turning off the magic guessing of implicit dependencies based on observed order. Correct? Before we bikeshed the name and form of the setting, can you post a patch that just removes the logic outright so we can see exactly what you mean?
