Yes, the order of actions within a project should match on the phone and desktop.

Also, the contents of the iDisk ofocus package are already starting to balloon in size and number after 5 hours. Not good.
It's not clear if what you're seeing is good or bad without more information.

OmniFocus records each change in a separate transaction file, so that each device can tell which changes are the newest when resolving editing conflicts (where two devices have changed the same item). After every device has had a chance to process a transaction, it becomes eligible to be coalesced (or "smooshed") with other old transactions, at which point you'll start to see those old transactions disappear.

Each OmniFocus device records snapshots of what work it has processed by writing a new ".client" file. Each of these stick around for at least an hour, to make sure that any other clients that might have a synchronize in progress get a chance to see them.
