The function validateWordlist doesn't check the alphabetical ordering if the words in the wordlist. If an attacker was able to manipulate the wordlist, then they could use it to generate any seed from the given mnemonic phrase.

That would be a nice feature. Even if the ordering is sometimes tricky (for various languages), it would be still better to make in consistent when two dictionaries with the same words, but different order are used.
