This makes sense but it *is* compile order dependent though. Therefore care has to be taken in ensuring that all shared_data are available prior to full resource realization in the catalog.
This is why the ordering relationship matters, not for any client side reason. Basically, it would mean deferred realization of catalog resources until the end of catalog processing.
