Currently we only use the layout position, but I'm +1 for allowing
the element names to be searched first. The order must be defined by the explicit
layout position though because
- I can think of a whole lot of manipulations that may not preserve the implicit
element order of elements
- once we have user customization the order of input should not constraint the
order of display.
In any case, if you don't specify explicit layout position, the default implicit
order is used, we just don't guarantee that it will be preserved in the engine...
