Hi Dmitry, The ordering is definitely a bug here that we should fix up and will. Otherwise, we'd just like to make sure that the info format is uniform with the RPC; beyond that, we can without a doubt add other fields if they're needed for good reason.
Do you mind reporting that in the form of an [Bug] issue on gitlab? That helps us a lot with keeping track of these things. Thanks a lot for your feedback and your quick action!
