reverse order of modulpositions

[nielsnuebel]

..I render dependent modules to different positions.
If the first module is rendered now, this saves as the output item in a variable. So the next module the item stored with do not append.

Now it would be the item with a newer date would stand at the bottom of the page.
Example:
I have a category with 20 entries and each modules are 5 entries, then the first five would be below and above the last.

This PR has the potential to cause weird and difficult to diagnose issues with some existing sites. The order in which modules are executed would be changed and hence, potentially, this could change the order in which JavaScript or CSS assets are loaded in the head.

@chrisdavenport are you saying therefore that we need to close (reject) this PR for b/c reasons

Yes, it could potentially break a (probably) small number of existing sites which depend on a specific load order. This is why the reverse load order, which probably originated in Mambo, has been preserved. I'm not saying this is a bad idea, just that it can't be done before 4.0 at the earliest.

Closing because of the B/C issue
