Description

feature-request

It would be great if new object additions could be specified with a defined property ordering (in formatting options). Something like the insertion function that exists, but for total ordering of existing objects.

This way adding new objects could retain a canonical property ordering with a single call to modify, without having to piece together multiple modify removals and individual modify inserts.

Thanks!
