Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There are some ways to influence the parameter order. Unfortunately the (legacy?) order of defaulting to the order in the OpenAPI manifest is not among them.
Describe the solution you'd like
I'd propose a parameter to specify preserveParameterOrder: true, defaulting to false, mutually exclusive to prependFormOrBodyParameters: true that does not reorder allParams.
Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction
Start by locating the generator code that orders allParams and handles prependFormOrBodyParameters. Add the proposed preserveParameterOrder option with its mutual exclusion rule, preserving manifest order when enabled, and verify that the default behavior remains unchanged.
