Hmmm. Given that the order really only has lexical significance I
would say there are three alternatives:
- specify lexical order (kinda awkward with tools that build an
object structure which does not preserve the order, but I'm not
sure if that really matters)
- specify alphabetical order (solves the problem with non-parsing
tools, but loses lexical information)
- state that the order is undefined (and perhaps add a property so
that one can query to see whether the order actually is lexical)
Having thought about it I think I would prefer specifying the order to
be lexical.

Is it? (I think it should be, but I don't think it is at the moment.)
And what about the case when the parser throws an exception?
