While that might fix your current problem, I believe the long term 
solution will require valias code to maintain any arbitrary ordering of 
entries.  I expect that to require adding an order field and sort on 
that.  I have plans for it, but not a lot of time.  It is pretty high on 
my list, but I wouldn't mind if someone beat me to it.  :)
