That said, I suppose just ordering the nodes so that children come before parents would also be fine. My thinking was just that accepting any node ordering is simpler.


Oh, actually I just tried that out and software_node_register_nodes doesn't allow this (parents must be added before children).

So I still think software_node_register_nodes and software_node_unregister_nodes are made more useful if children are removed recursively. I'll make some changes for v2 to make the change less far-reaching + better documentation.

Thanks,
