It is effectively random.

It is actually in the order in which the items are found, which is 
typically the order in which they were created, but that is not reliable 
behavior.

The UI sorts by index and by timestamp by default.  Items with a null 
index have not been explicitly ordered.

Hope this helps,
Chris
