I think ordering is orthogonal to naming.
You can set the ordered bit on a node type to determine whether the
list of child nodes is ordered or not, but personally I don't think it
makes that much difference and tend to default to using ordered nodes
that cover both cases.
The bag data structure (name-value map that can have multiple distinct
values per name) is a typical candidate for using same name siblings,
but an equally valid alternative would be to use a collection subnode
with some second level of naming for things that fall under the same
name in the bag structure.
