Comment (by gregor):

 Reordering the fields makes a difference for the C++ part, when you use
 Assign().

 The problem is when you have *multiple* extensions with +=. Then the order
 of the fields depends on the order in which these extensions are parsed.

 (One question I guess is: is this likely to happen. Since the C++ layer
 would have to know that the record is extended. However, this might happen
 in bif's)
