Can't be done without putting enough analysis in your program to completely 
understand the output of EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN.  And the output of that statement 
does not have a fixed form: lines can go up or down, ANALYZE can change what 
happens, whether a table is empty or has data can change what happens.

If you want to be able to predict the order of results from a SELECT, set it 
using ORDER BY.
