Hi,

quick answer, so I'll have to double check, but if I wanted to go the
simplest route for that, I'd use the camliPath attribute. If we sort
(say lexicographically) - but I don't remember if we currently do -
the camliPaths then reordering within a group of camliPaths, simply
means renaming the ones you want to reorder.

I'll try to go for a better/longer answer later.

hth,
Mathieu
