JSOP diff question

Hi, 

I have a question with JSOP diff syntax. Say I want to add a node "a" with
a property and value. This is the diff I use in the commit:

diff.append("+\"a\" : {\"prop\" : \"value\"}");

Is it legal to add "a" and then add its properties in 2 separate add
operations but in the same commit like this?

diff.append("+\"a\" : {}");
        diff.append("+\"a\" : {\"prop\" : \"value\"}");

Maybe it's not legal because it would try to add node "a" twice?

Also, is it legal to do the previous operation but with property in the
path like this?


        diff.append("+\"a\" : {}");
        diff.append("+\"a/prop\" : \"value\"");


Thanks,
Mete

correct, it should fail.
