Item12378: Documentation for RENDERZONE appears to be incorrect

System.Macros#RENDERZONE states:

Zones are cleared after being rendered; they are only ever rendered once.

This appears to be incorrect, at least in 1.1.6.

Specify a skin template with contents:

%RENDERZONE{"script" format=" "}%
%TEXT%

Various script tags will still be added to the head of this skin template's output. However, reorder the contents of the skin template thus:

%TEXT%
%RENDERZONE{"script" format=" "}%

No script tags will be included in the head of the resulting output.

The implication seems to be that, in the first case, additional zone rendering is being done after the processing of the RENDERZONE macro; in the second case, the processing of RENDERZONE at the end of the template appears to "cancel out" this other zone rendering.
