My guess is you are talking about elemets in general and not DOMElements specifically... In our application we had to sort all DOMAttributes in order to write them back to file in the reqired order because we used the DOM to write a special file format which should be rerecognized by peoble knowing this standard... So it seems like a good idea to me to retain the order!
