if we always add only the minimal needed set of parents then the order
will look something like

 1: 0
 2: 1 
 3: (0-1) 
 4: 2 
 5: (0-3) 
 6: 3 
 7: (2-3) 
 8: 4
 9: (0-7)
10: 5
11: (4-5)
12. 6
13: (4-7)
13: 7
14: (6-7)

seems pretty regular  :)

and is probably easy to expand into pages

Will work on this a little more
