[GitHub] nifi issue #2103: NIFI-4306: Allow root field to be updated to a child field...

    @pvillard31 yeah at this point, the properties are given to use in a Map and not in any guaranteed order. So the updates are applied in some arbitrary order. If you have conflicting "rules" then there's no real way to determine what order they will be evaluated in. So if the first rule ( / => /accounts[1]/* ) is evaluated first then /name will evaluate to `null`. Otherwise, the /name will be updated and then the other rule will overwrite it...
