Improve the `pyconvert` rule dispatch system

Open LilithHafner opened this issue 9 months ago • 5 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I add a rule with a bug in the function, try a conversion, see the bug, and define a new rule with a different (hopefully less buggy) function. However, when I try the conversion again, I get the old function :cry:.

Describe the solution you'd like When tied for priority in all other respects, I'd like to get the most recently added conversion, not the least recently added conversion.

Describe alternatives you've considered Removing rules is a more robust approach, and works even if I added a new rule with an erroneously high priority, but that can be orthogonal to this feature request.

Additional context I'm happy to make a PR if this is a change we want to make. It's technically breaking, but only barely, and IIUC we are okay with more breaking releases at this time.
