Puppet users - Feb 2014 - Tags and dependencies

Hi,
I'm using tags in resource defaults to define resource ordering inside a 
single class, preventing at the same time dependency cycles with other 
classes, like this:

class myname::myclass {

  # defaults
  User       { tag => "this_class" }
  File       { tag => "this_class" }
  Service    { tag => "this_class" }

  # dependencies
  User       <| tag == "this_class" |> ->
  File       <| tag == "this_class" |> ->
  Service    <| tag == "this_class" |>

  # resources, many of each type
  user {
    ...
  }

  file {
    ...
  }

  service {
    ...
  }

}

But this doesn't seem to work: I get errors, and by looking at the report I 
can see that the errors are due to dependencies not being respected, e.g. 
some service resources are applied before some file resources and so on.

Am I missing anything?

BTW, I was supposing there are no problems with "nested" dependencies,
right?
I mean, the class itself is part of a dependency chain together with other 
classes, and the chain works fine. But I suppose there is no problem with 
creating dependencies contained inside a class which is part of the higher 
chain.

Thanks.
Marco
