termlist_begin ordering in older versions

[Eric Wong]

Hey, I noticed commit 145503bbe4a5bf702cd13cb2e592111e8d7ca89a
(Reimplement Database and WritableDatabase, 2017-10-05) added
the phrase:

  "The terms are returned ascending string order (by byte value)"

for termlist_begin.  Is that also true for the 1.4 (or even 1.2) series?
Also, is allterms_begin also the same w.r.t. ordering?

Thanks.
