Open World makes first thing in an OrderedCollection indeterminate #549

Description

@marksem

Given the open world assumption, it is not possible to tell which is the first thing in an OrderedCollection just by looking for the absence of a predecessor. We may want an explicit hasFirstMember type property to remove this ambiguity and make it easy to find the first member of an OrderedCollection.
