Comment(by Eben):
It's definitely bad practice to allow things like this to arbitrarily
change. Users expect consistency, and subconsciously (or not) depend on
it to make using a system more natural. Could we at least call sort() or
something (are they in a dict?) so that there is some persistent ordering
even if it's not the one I've defined? It seems pretty silly to have non-
deterministic behavior.
