Again I think there is a misunderstanding. The linked-list approach can very
well be implemented within oak-core or oak-jcr. Remember we wanted to implement
ordering in oak-core or oak-jcr, and not oak-mk.

> 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

> good enough for this.
