John Hjelmstad updated SHINDIG-605:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: shindig-605.patch

Attached solution to this issue which, rather than attempting to order the 
enumValues map, instead introduces a new entry in the RPC response: 
orderedEnums. This is a JSON Array (ordered) of JSON Objects, each of which 
having a "value" and "displayValue" property.

This increases payload size but is backward-compatible. All this should be 
resolved with use of the RPC protocol rather than ad hoc RPC in any case.

Comments welcome.

> Because UserPref stores EnumValues as a Map, they're returned in random order 
> when retrieving them via the metadata API. While not expressly codified 
> anywhere, these are expected to be returned in gadget-specified order so that 
> Prefs edit menus can be constructed in a reliable and user-friendly manner.
