Use an array to declare the object properties so that the order is always the same.
Add a data-new attribute for individual properties. (You can still use a whole object in the data-new attribute of a parent array.)
Add data-prepend and data-append attributes to properties for inserting html before or after that property. (This may also be useful for the array plugin.)
Allows objects to be added to a plugin's settings using a tag with a JSON-like syntax in data-attributes.
A complex object can be created by using an array or another object as a parent, the object will be added to the parent array or the parent object's declared property instead of as it's own data-key.
