get_starting_phase() vs starting seq with uvm_config_db

[DV-E]

HI All. 

    I am not sure if we already had this discussion or not. In uvm1.2, it seems get_starting_phase() can only be inside of default tasks (pre/post/body/start) of sequence with  uvm_config_db#(....)::set(this,"sqr.main_phase", "default_phase", seq) flow.  In below test case,  line 10 locked the phase while line 30 try to set_starting_phase(),  or anyway document that  line 10 is not right usage ? 

 it is not a case in seq.start(..) flow. 

Thanks

AM
