Is there any assumption whatsoever that one could safely make regarding the order of entries in an HTTP GET/POST header sent out by various browsers - especially FF and IE? At the very least can one assume that the GET/POST line would be the first one?

I find that FF adds q=0.#(# in '5..8]) to the Accept-? lines of the header. I don't find any references to this in the O'Reilly HTTP quick reference book. What do these values mean?
