So my doubt over the ordering was correctly based -- I'm glad.

I think the entries should be ordered according to their meaning on
the page.  Currently the only apparent ordering is alphabetical, and
when translated to other languages, the ordering basically becomes --
well -- just random.

How about using this:
o friend  o acquaintance  o contact  o none

I think a similar ordering is needed for the geographical and family choices.

What do you think?
