You only need to convince Christophe on this. :)
If there's a compelling reason for keeping it, which Eric just demonstrated, I'm all for keeping the order. All I was saying is that without such a reason, I don't think it's worth going out of our way to keep it, and that not guarateeing it's kept gives us more flexibility if needed. Since it's actually important to keep thing ordered, case is closed. Christophe
