Sorry. I don't get your point. Why [:noresize] would break
existing application using this interface? Doesn't
[:noresize] mean an optional property?
[<order of align>@] is also an optional property.
Sometimes, we would not specify it. So we should
not put "noresize" into [<order of align>@] in case
that we want to use "noresize" but we don't want
to specify <order of align>.

Sounds good!
