iget_records preserving order #95
Description
Is there any current method of preserving the ordering of the data read in from iget_records?
Potentially a way to either specify the method to utilize ordered dicts instead of normal ones?
Or maybe a list parameter in isave_as / save_as which specifies the ordering that a list of normal dictionary records should be saved in.

No, currently I don't think I have paid attention to it.
Yes, I can look at your suggestion. As a last resort, we could get a nominated list of column names to enforce the order.

Please try with:
By default the order is preserved as it returns an ordered dict. If custom order is required, please provide
customer_headers=['a', 'preferred', 'order']to those functions.
