XSLT2 changes the underlying datatype to sequences which do have an order, which is sometimes useful when processing sorted data. > (the libxslt implementation used in PHP I believe libxslt supports teh node-set extension function which means that you can create a document with things in the right order and then process that (in-memory) document without having to serialise and re-parse it.
