My idea of what seems like a good ordering, for what that's worth :) When I watch the headers, I always wonder why I didn't put Accept-Encoding next to Accept-Charset, for one thing...
AFAIR headers are ordered as they appear in the RFC. I'm not sure whether this is relevant, please check.
Oh! Let's see. The RFC says: The order in which header fields with differing field names are received is not significant. However, it is "good practice" to send general-header fields first, followed by request-header or response- header fields, and ending with the entity-header fields. Following that, placing them in order of appearance, yields: POST Connection Accept-Charset Accept-Encoding Host Proxy-Authorization Referer User-Agent Content-Length Content-Type Cookie GET Cache-Control Connection Pragma Accept-Charset Accept-Encoding Host Proxy-Authorization Referer User-Agent Cookie Which is pretty close to what dillo has already if you don't count the headers that I have added, since I never realized there was any ordering.
