What are the ordering behaviour of these nodes?
For example in this:

    <glob pattern="*.foo"/>
    <glob deleteall="true"/>
    <glob pattern="*.bar"/>

Is foo deleted or not?

Since deleteall is a attribute of glob, one could do:

    <glob deleteall="true" pattern="*.foo"/>

Is this allowed?

Maybe we should have a <glob-deleteall> node instead to avoid these
issues? It would translate in the same way as the above in the files.

The "deleteall" attribute for magic has the same issues, but it also
looks from the diff as if its an attribute on the match node, not on the
magic node. Thats not right, is it? Anyway, same as above, that might be
better as <magic-deleteall>.
