Sorry for the delay. Jon is correct: by *default* the Order is
required and is used as the tag number. However, if you want, there is
also a global switch that causes it to infer these by name (and the
Order if it is shared) instead. This was useful for a few users to
handle existing [DataContract] code that didn't have explicit
ordering, but it is brittle in that if you inject a new "Aardvark"
property with an existing Order, it can break.
