I've fairly certain it is, yes. The spec says this about FIELD_INTERLACED:

"Images contain both fields, interleaved line by line. The temporal order of the
 fields (whether the top or bottom field is first transmitted) depends on the
 current video standard. M/NTSC transmits the bottom field first, all other
 standards the top field first."

So if the application needs to know the temporal order, it will have to look
at the current video standard.
