The point is that the automatic reordering should go away because it's
causing at least one bug that I know of. Keys should be read out of the
registry in the same order they were written to it. Thus, saying "this
is a no-op because keys are reordered" isn't a valid argument against
BiGgUn's patch. You could equally say "This patch seems completely
pointless, key re-ordering or not", though and I'd be quite happy.
