I would say instead that they appear in an unspecified, implementation
dependant, order. This may be alphabetic, but it's certainly not guaranteed
to be so.

There is currently no way to do this automatically. I have always thought
about those properties as being unordered, so the RDKit doesn't maintain
any record of what order properties are added to a molecule.
As long as you have the original SDMolSupplier, you can pretty easily get
the ordered list of property names from that:
In [22]: suppl = Chem.SDMolSupplier('tmp.sdf')
In [23]: m = suppl[0]
In [25]: list(m.GetPropNames()) # <- here's the non-ordered list
Out[25]:
['PUBCHEM_ATOM_DEF_STEREO_COUNT',

In [26]: txt = suppl.GetItemText(0)
In [27]: pns = re.findall(r'> *<(\w+)>',txt) # <- this gives you the

If you pass that list of property names to the SDWriter's SetPropNames()
method, it will write things out in the input order.
I hope this helps,
