My bad, I only checked the DTS changes which landed in v7.0-rc1, and wrongly
assumed the binding also landed about the same time.  I think it's unlikely
there are any (external) users of this binding, but obviously we cannot be 100%
sure.

Would it be acceptable to extend the binding so that it allows both the current
and the new proposed order to coexist?

Thanks,
Cristian
