That's exactly the order I'd prefer.  Types 0/1 require PKIX, so the
prefix makes sense and I like the alignment that allows:

  |---------+---------|
  | PKIX-TA | PKIX-EE |
  |---------+---------|
  | DANE-TA | DANE-EE |
  |---------+---------|

(even though a future type 5 may not align well, those four still can
and probably should)

That being said, I'm fine with PKIX-CA as well.  I disagree(ish) that
a type 0 reference is not a trust-anchor and thus shouldn't be called
that.  And the reason I disagree is that though in-itself it isn't one
because the true trust anchor must also be pre-programmed, it still is
very much restricting use to a single TA and pointed to as a reference.
Thus it truly is being used as a form of trust, because both the
internally recorded TA and the DANE TLSA record must match or all bets
are off.  Thus they're both equally as important when DANE is in play.
