I think that core does lay them out sequentially at
*/admin/build/menu-customize/navigation page. This is the same order in
the Drupal Administration Menu Module
<http://drupal.org/project/admin_menu> so I reckon that it's the default
sequential order. I am using suckerfish on my sites' primary links so
the first thing I do is move the "administer" link from the Navigation
menu to primary links menu and it is the same order as you have stated.

I think this is very good for consistency. :-)
