mlongdiv currently says the order of the children is: result divisor dividend (as members of an mstack) It takes as an attribute 'longdivstyle' with possible values: "lefttop" | "stackedrightright" | "mediumstackedrightright" | "shortstackedrightright" | "righttop" | "left/\right" | "left)(right" | ":right=right" | "stackedleftleft" | "stackedleftlinetop" The names for longdivstyle all name the position of the divisor followed by the position of the result, which mostly corresponds to the order they are displayed in (divisor first, result later) .... which is backwards the children's order. Although it is somewhat arbitrary, it would be more consistent to make the first child of mlongdiv be the divisor, and the second child the result.
