Carsten Ziegeler commented on OAK-169:
--------------------------------------

My uses cases would work ootb, if the nodes are always returned in the 
insertion order. That's actually what I would expect as a user.
A random order would be bad, a consistent order by name would be fine as well.
But I agree, this is something which is better discussed in a meeting :)

> 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 
> something like an extra (hidden) {{oak:childOrder}} property that records the 
> specified ordering of child nodes. A multi-valued string property is probably 
> good enough for this.
