Define "first" :) I also can't think of use cases where it matters which is returned, but I still think it's confusing that it'd change depending on which order things are iterated. Consider a page with displays a table of results and which has the ability to sort results by a particular column by clicking the header in that column. It would seem strange if the contents of that table change if you switched a column between ascending and descending sorting. / Jonas
