"Kele" found these unused words:

Sharpen [other than in specific aresa for effect] and resizing, should be the last.

Working on photographs, I prefer:

Spotting [clone tool, etc]
Tonal adjust [Image adjustment tools]
Cropping
Final large area corrections [Brightness, Contrast, Curves] Save ‘master’
Resize for specific use
Sharpen [if needed for smaller size appearance].
