dir auths vote "package" lines out of order

In proposal 227, we say

   Votes and consensuses may include any number of "package" lines,
   but no vote or consensus may include more than one "package" line
   with the same PACKAGENAME and VERSION values.  All "package"
   lines must be sorted by "PACKAGENAME VERSION", in
   lexical (strcmp) order.

but I just had moria1 set up its torrc with

RecommendedPackages shouldbesecond 0 http digest=digest
RecommendedPackages outoforder 0 http digest=digest

and sure enough, its vote now says

package shouldbesecond 0 http digest=digest
package outoforder 0 http digest=digest

I've looked through the code, and it looks like the lines do get sorted for the consensus. And maybe there is no problem with having them unsorted in the votes? In that case should we just update the proposal document so future me doesn't get confused? Or, better, should we change votes to sort them too, because it can't hurt and it might help?
