I think we may *not* even need to address this at all.
Isn't it the draft-ietf-simple-message-sessions-11 pretty clear about 
this, i.e. client must be prepared to receive out-of-order messages?

IMO that means, implementors of MSRP clients/endpoints SHOULD handle 
out-of-order chunks if they think it's important. And implementors of 
MSRP relays *MAY* implement reordering if they think they're very clever. :)

That's not necessary. See above.
