The product's SKUs (the code field) SHOULD be unique among all the
databases in the 'ProductFiles' set !
So, it doesn't matter wich file/database is searched first or second
etc., i.e. "order doesn't matter" :-)
If you have diferent products with identical SKU/code, I think it's an
administrative and development whatsoever -error- , definitely.
You must ensure that -all- codes are unique. Hmm... I'm not re-inventing
the wheel, though :-)
