Folder Children (restrict acceptable values for OrderBy)
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CMIS-655
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/CMIS-655
             Project: OASIS Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Domain Model
    Affects Versions: Committee Draft 06
         Environment: n/a
            Reporter: Jay Brown
            Assignee: Ethan Gur-esh
            Priority: Minor


Since folder getChildren is basically a specialized query against two different tables, supporting all orderBy values for all possible orderable properties becomes prohibitively difficult for some repositories.

In some repositories, the underlying query against all documents (and sub classes of document) may not permit sorting by a field that only may be present on a subclass of document.     But the scope of this call implies all cmis:document subclasses and all cmis:folder subclasses. 

An example of a case that may be difficult to correctly service is the following: 
A subclass of cmis:document named invoicedoc exists that has a an orderable property value of 'foo'.
A folder getchildren is then reqested for a folder with an orderBy parm set to "foo".
