Comment (by nielx):
I don't understand the problem exactly, but if I am correct there is a
risk in chaining methods, because it gives the impression it is a linear
operation (like a chain), but the compiler does not (or does not have to)
understand it like this.
Best thing would be to give an example within the context of the layout
builders that looks logical and valid, but is not. We can briefly point
out what to watch out for (and how to recognize that people have fallen in
this trap), and refer to the specs for the whole story.
