I'm not sure we want to keep the old order (which AFAIU was the side
effect of the implementation), nor become committed to a specific
order.  Sorting overlays is a slowdown, and not every application
cares about the order.  The ones that do care can sort the overlays in
the order they want.

Or maybe I'm missing something: can you explain why the order matters
in a couple of specific examples from Org?
