I think the default would have to be 'ordered'.

That's consistent with 1.0 behavior and is the least surprising.

Indeed. Though we can use the feature on steps like p:count so it
won't be that obscure. And it only applies to steps that take
sequences on input.

ordered=false:
  p:count
  p:sink
  p:split-sequence
  p:wrap-sequence
  p:xslt
  p:exec
  p:xquery

ordered=true:
  p:identity
  p:insert
  p:pack

ordered=i'm not sure:
  p:validate-with-xml-schema

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
