Hi Tamas,
thanks a lot for your reply.

Are the vertex and edge orders guaranteed by the API? Will vertices and 
edges always be in the order they were created? Or are there any 
circumstances where the order of vs and es change?

I'm asking because I don't want to rely on implementation details that 
may change with the next version.

Thanks. I'll file a few feature requests for api improvements.

Cheers,
