I think we should try to preserve table order on DataColumns - this is something I often come across with researchers as they want the data to look the same as they submitted. I can add a workaround for this by adding a date_created field and sorting by that so long as we assume that each DataColumn is created left->right as we scan the fields but it would probably be better to add an explicit table_order field to DataColumn.
