Is there a particular reason for the diverging attribute order in some classes? Example:

[NoInterfaceObject]
interface  ContactField
 {
    attribute DOMString  type;
    attribute DOMString? value;
    attribute boolean    pref;
};

[NoInterfaceObject]
interface ContactAddress
 {
    attribute boolean    pref;
    attribute DOMString? type;
    attribute DOMString? formatted;
    attribute DOMString? streetAddress;
    attribute DOMString? locality;
    attribute DOMString? region;
    attribute DOMString? postalCode;
    attribute DOMString? country;
};

pref is last and then first.

Since this can be observed from JS, can we pick one meaningful order and stick to that for all classes?
