------------------------------------------------------------

Also, if I'm understanding correctly that fusion is strictly required to run a 
pipeline, that behavior could be made more explicit in the code, maybe by 
making a 
[PortablePipelineRunner|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/runners/java-fn-execution/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/runners/fnexecution/jobsubmission/PortablePipelineRunner.java]
 provide a fuse function?

> When I was prototyping a portable runner, I tested using a trivial pipeline:
> {noformat}
> PCollection<byte[]> result = pipeline.apply("impulse", Impulse.create());
> PAssert.thatSingleton(result).isEqualTo(new byte[]{});
> {noformat}
> When I tried traversing this pipeline, I found that the URN for the transform 
> PAssert$0 was strangely missing. Turns out GreedyPipelineFuser solves this 
> problem. I don't know why this is so, but I think this behavior should at 
> least be documented in the [runner authoring 
> guide|https://beam.apache.org/contribute/runner-guide/#pipeline] to save 
> future runner authors some debugging.
