If you are going to do this I would suggest you *audit* the entire  
startup/shutdown ordered collection
to understand if the order is correct and somehow ensure perhaps by a  
initialization method that
does the reorder for all classes in the sequence that is run when you  
build a new official image.

The Sophie team was burned from time to time by this order problem and  
having different team
members just drop a class somewhere random in the sequence. As you see  
the order *can* be
important, and bizarre things can happen.

A wiki page documenting the why might be useful too.
