True, attribute ordering isn't significant in XML. But it would be nice
if JAXB matches the order in which they are read from the XSD. Makes
readability and comparison between the XSD and XML easier. Or, at least
output in ascending alphabetical order.

No. Order of attributes is not significant in XML.
