wfs geometry property element order

[Steve Lime]

Mind you this was just a quick thought, but I was thinking of being
rather explicit:

  gmp_property_order "delimited list of properties"

thus avoiding having to parse a schema. If that metadata tag isn't set
then data
order prevails.

Hi Steve,

So what values might gml_property_order have? A value to
indicate as layed out according to metadata (suggest "metadata")
and a value to indicate as layed according to as found in the data
(suggest "data"), are there any other possibilities?

Cheers,
Peter
