The order by original table is already lost when we define dimensions in
model. So the problem becomes how to order the dimension when creating
model?

To illustrate the problem let's assume we have fact table and a lookup
table. Assume the columns on fact is "dim1, FK, dim2, metrics1, metrics2",
and the lookup table looks like "PK, dim3, dim4", what kind of ordering is
reasonable? 1234 ro 1342?
