Jennifer, It does seem to work on our current version, and it also seems to
work on 3.8+ with the new Angular pull list, so I think we are covered.

The catalog search shelving location list doesn't seem to make use of the
ordering on any version of EG I've tested though.  But I'm not sure that it
should.  The shelving order of items probably doesn't help someone find a
specific entry in that list, to me alphabetical order makes the most sense
there.  3.8 does seem to list them apha in the Angular staff catalog.
