@ronaldtse Is this same as https://github.com/lutaml/lutaml-model/pull/19? or is there something else needed to be done in this ticket?

Yes, in some XML objects (depending on our implementation of course) the element order doesn't matter, e.g.

e.g. https://github.com/relaton/loc_mods/blob/main/spec/fixtures/allrecords-MODS-991000030349708106.xml

In some XML elements, the order of inner elements matter. We need to support both modes.
