Ordering is not implemented yet. Ordering support is provider-specific, so I wasn't sure of the best approach about wrapping functionality that is provider-specific. Now that I think about it more, I'll probably just let it crash and burn for those that try to order results where the underlying

However, even if I add ordering support to mapguide-rest, the providers of interest that you want to have ordered results (SDF/SHP) do not support ordering. We can have a limited form of ordering support at the MapGuide level for these providers if we implement this:

Let me clarify this. You can do layer/group toggling via the overlayimage URL route. If you look at the bundled OpenLayers examples, you can see the requests that are made when you toggle a layer or group on/off in the legend. If you want to do this silently without requesting a new map image,

Fusion doesn't render its layers with REST, so I can't image it would. The way I see it, REST has nothing to do with the existing viewers or their functionality. It's a new method of sending and receiving map information. Fusion and AJAX already have their ways of sending and getting data. A
