It may not be the best solution either, but MaxMSP does it in a right to
left order regarding the x coordinates of the objects.
That way one immediately knows the order of execution. The drawback is, that
with complicated patches editing (moving around objects) often destroys this
order irreversibly.
I think hiding the ordering number inside a property dialog is still to
incommodious.
One solution could be to have a special editing mode where the order is
indicated by numbers (or colors?) upon the objects for each branching of
cords.
