-------------------------------------------------------------

I believe the idea is to have only a partial ordering (you can rely on the 
order of only those entries that have been re-ordered).

Not sure how well this is going to work in practice, because that wouldn't 
satisfy the requirements in 
http://www.day.com/specs/jcr/2.0/23_Orderable_Child_Nodes.html (namely that the 
ordering is consistent for *all* child nodes, and that new nodes are added to 
the end).

> There are JCR clients that depend on the ability to explicitly specify the 
> order of child nodes. That functionality is not included in the MicroKernel 
> tree model, so we need to implement it either in oak-core or oak-jcr using

> specified ordering of child nodes. A multi-valued string property is probably 
> good enough for this.
