I'm slaving off a Microsoft DNS, and every now and then the order of some records change in the written bindbackend zone file.

Example diff (snippet):

@@ -15,8 +15,8 @@ _ldap._tcp.Core._sites        600     SRV     0       100 389 ad01

This is certainly valid, but annoying.

Thanks to edit-zone and friends, we probably even have code for this now.
