Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing how on options are handled for in: :sequence and in: :groups, then verify why wait: n is ignored while :in is recognized. Done means the wait option affects both execution modes as intended and is covered by the relevant tests.

Description

Using 1.1.0. The wait: n option for in: :sequence/:groups is being ignored. I lookd over the code and can't see on's options being used anywhere, except for :in. I'm happy to submit a patch, but I wanted to verify that I wasn't overlooking something first.
