`processing-role="resource-only"` does not cascade downward in map

See original GitHub issue

Expected Behavior

In a map, I have two versions of the same topic file (topic2.dita):

The unpublished version is resource-only without a key definition.
The published version is local with a key definition.

wrong_ref

When I have an <xref> to that key, the reference should resolve to the published version.

Actual Behavior

The transformation creates a duplicate HTML5 file for the unpublished version, and the key-derived reference incorrectly points to that instead:

wrong_ref_html

Possible Solution

A workaround (but not a fix) is to add @processing-role="resource-only" to the unpublished <topicref> directly:

In this case, the HTML5 output is as expected:

wa_html

Steps to Reproduce

Testcase: ditaot_wrong_ref.zip

To run: dita -i map -f html5 -Dforce-unique=true

Environment

DITA-OT version: 3.7.2
Operating system and version: Linux
How did you run DITA-OT? dita command
Transformation type: html5

Looking in the class https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/blame/develop/src/main/java/org/dita/dost/writer/ForceUniqueFilter.java

there is a TODO there " // FIXME: handle cascading" so indeed the processing-role cascading does not seem to be taken into account.
