That's exactly what the current system does. I guess what you want is
that the finalisation function for a value is not called until the
finalisation functions of all values that depend on it have finished
execution. There are two problems with that:
1. What happens to circular values (a circular value depends on
itself, directly or indirectly).
2. How to implement it with reasonable efficiency. I don't have a
solution.
