What's the purpose of x-ogc-propertySeq? Can it actually be enfored? I see it provided for object properties, but objects in JSON have no order as per the JSON specification. I don't see how this could be implemented and would argue that it should actually be removed.

For data encoded in JSON this is irrelevant (and cannot be enforced), but for other representations (e.g., CSV or FlatGeobuf) the order is essential.

Meeting 2024-08-26: Currently, the document states "For cases, where the properties of the data have to be ordered in some representations of the data, the sequence of the properties can be expressed using a keyword x-ogc-propertySeq." We will add a note that provides examples and more context. That should address the issue.
