Hi.
ViewPropertiesExtensions.cs -> VisibleProperties() extension ignores
DisplayAttribute "Order" property in models.

I have suggest simple solution for this:

public static PropertyInfo[] VisibleProperties(this IEnumerable Model)
{
var elementType = Model.GetType().GetElementType();
if (elementType == null)
{
elementType = Model.GetType().GetGenericArguments()[0];
}
return elementType.GetProperties().Where(info => info.Name != elementType.IdentifierPropertyName()).OrderedByDisplayAttr().ToArray();
}

    public static PropertyInfo[] VisibleProperties(this Object model)
    {
        return model.GetType().GetProperties().Where(info => info.Name != model.IdentifierPropertyName()).OrderedByDisplayAttr().ToArray();
    }

    // Support for Order property in [Display()] attribute
    public static IOrderedEnumerable<PropertyInfo> OrderedByDisplayAttr(this IEnumerable<PropertyInfo> collection)
    {
        return collection.OrderBy(col =>
        {
            var attr = col.GetAttribute<DisplayAttribute>();
            return (attr != null ? attr.GetOrder() : null) ?? 0;
        });
    }

@erroric - this is a good idea. You're implementation looks about right. It would help greatly if you could send a pull request with your updates, like you did for #46.

There is a Contributing wiki page with some tips on developing and testing changes to this package.

Hope that helps,
