Sorry for being unclear. The user needed to *overcome* the sorting behavior so
that they could produce an ordering of their own choosing. The problem then
became that we had to work out a way to defeat the sorting to allow the
requested attribute ordering to be preserved.
Roughly:
casefile = Element('casefile', clearance="confidential",
access="internal", valid_through="31 Mar 2022")
The desired result is that the attribute order be preserved. By removing the
sort, a user can specify an order they want and have that specification honored.
