Another idea: there is already a isOrdered test in 
MessageSet>>#initializeMessageList:

We could just add a query to the class itself, like so:

	isOrdered := (anArray size > 1
		and: [anArray second isMethodReference]
		and: [anArray second stringVersion first = Character space]).
	
	isOrdered := isOrdered or: [self class isAlwaysOrdered]

and then implement #isAlwaysOrdered in MessageSet class (returning 
false) and in RecentMessageSet (returning true).
