wfs geometry property element order

[Rushforth, Peter]

Hi,

We are trying to follow an application schema with the mapserver
wfs component.  Our source is shapefiles.  We can re-order property
elements simply by reordering the columns in the shapefile, but
because the SHAPE column is always first in the shapefile, we can't
re-order the geometry property to where we want it according to 
the schema.  Is there a workaround for this problem?

Thanks,
