@Jan: I'm not 100% sure if re-sorting the tag order alphabetically is a good 
idea or not. This breaks at least the expected order of the known fields, 
though there is no "hard rule" on that in the format specification.

A client can insert custom XML tags at any position, so parsers should
be pretty relaxed.

Kolab format specification for Kolab 2.0 (which is what we implement):
