it should be considered that when you use hibernate, the collection type is explicit with the collection mapping itself; and when you use the <list> type, a <list-index> is required (which is also a much better name here than "order_by"). So there is the notion that using a "list" should at all times have a "list-index", and it is more "correct" for sure. And this does bug me. I just am not sure if we're there yet as far as this kind of setting, if we want to force that level of explicitness in a Python lib, etc. Its something of a cultural decision.
