CAS-1013 has gone the direction of improving the usability of the existing 
evaluationOrder feature.  That's good, and I'd hate for the better to be the 
enemy of the good.  I haven't reviewed Misagh's pull request yet, but I intend 
to, and I expect improving the services management admin UI to surface and ease 
editing of evaluationOrder is a laudable, achievable improvement for CAS 3.5.  

I've adjusted the description of CAS-1013 [1] and the description of services 
registry improvements targeted for CAS 3.5 [2] to reflect this.

Longer term, I still think eliminating admin-facing evaluationOrder has 
potential.  I've created CAS-1083, not scheduled for any particular CAS 
release, to track that idea.  I feel like I'm past the point in this discussion 
where the thing to do is demonstrate my idea with working code and see whether 
it seems to be an improvement, so I'll look to circle back to doing that, but 
not for CAS 3.5.
