Yes. We could try to game that somehow, but I'm not sure that's really
a reasonable strategy long-term.

Yeah, that's the idea. I think it's really the best we can do given the
way that the client has worked up until these patches. Over time, newer
clients should proliferate and this should become a non-issue (in
theory!). If we find that it is a problem, we could also add export
options to control the order (or force a single layout type for an
export).

I don't think committing the server-side patches now will likely cause
problems, but it might be good to see what the client maintainers think
before we make any moves. I'd hate to make a server side change until
we have a better idea of what they think.

Trond, Anna? Care to comment on this set?
