i feel like this is an interesting step in the right direction

but... what happens if i want to read, process and write a log message....? thats three different bloom blocks that require 2 partial orderings.

instead of totally unordering everything, id rather have the ability to declaratively order functions for a request, where a function is a typical sequenced set of operations.

their examples arent particularly helpful, looks like most of these bloom blocks are single lines...
