The semantics of "ordered" shows that this operator controls the ordering of
matched query tokens within each Match (disjunct) in the AllMatches model. It
has no effect on the relationship between different Matches. 
In other words the ordered operator distributes over disjunctions: 
  Q1 || Q2 ordered 
is equivalent to 
  (Q1 ordered) || (Q2 ordered)

In the case where Q1 and Q2 consist of single search tokens only, "ordered"
simply  has no effect. 

We have discussed the question of the effect of the ordered operator on
disjunctions before and the current semantics reflects the outcome of our
discussions. Therefore, I'd propose to close this bug as invalid.
