If it is possible to do, then I think that is the direction we should
pursue. Making the consumers of the editor drive flexible enough to
handle different orderings is a good idea even if we do not relax the
requirements. That said, when this was discussed on list it seemed
like there was consensus that we should just relax the requirement.
So either way, making this work with the way Serf is driving the
editor would be a good thing.
