This is getting back to my earlier concerns/questions about field ordering, or 
at the very least I'm going to hijack this conversation and steer it towards 
field ordering ;)

Before we go to much farther, I'd really like us to agree that ordering is not 
important, can we do that?  As a follow up, what do we need to do to make that 
happen in the userspace tools?
