Just to be sure, this is about selecting multiple messages in the 
message list?

First of all, current behavior is kind of random (but most often related 
to date). The whole “previewing multiple messages” feature is a bit 
of a hack and it'll stay that way until I hopefully get around to 
replace it with a solution based on multiple HTML views instead of 
putting everything into one view (which doesn't really work with HTML).

In any case, I think most users would expect the order to be the same as 
the order in the message list -- disregarding the selection order... It 
could possibly be an optional feature, but keep in mind that this is the 
first time anyone has requested this behavior.
