The different JSON specs that are out there have conflicting views on whether multiple keys with the same name should be allowed or not. See this for more information.
ModeShape's REST service follows the ECMA JSON specification, which allows multiple keys with the same name, the effective behavior being that the last key always wins.
Updates a node or a property at the given path, using the body of request as JSON content
URL: http://<host>:<port>/<context>/<repository_name>/<workspace_name>/items/<item_path>

Retrieves a node with a specified identifier. This is equivalent to the Session.getNodeByIdentifier(String) method, where the identifier is obtained from the "id" field (or the "jcr:uuid" field if the node is mix:referenceable) in a previous response. Remember that node identifiers are generated by the repository, are opaque (and are not always UUIDs), and always remains the same for a given node (even when moved or renamed) until the node is destroyed.

The text response only contains the string representation of the query plan.
Assuming you create a parent node POSTing the following request:
{
"jcr:primaryType":"nt:unstructured",
"children":{
"child1":{
"prop":"child1"
},
"child2":{
"prop":"child2"
},
"child3":{
"prop":"child3"
}
}
}
Then you can reorder its children by issuing a PUT request with the following format:
{
"children":{
"child3":{
},
"child2":{
},
"child1":{
}
}
}
In order to move a node using the REST service, 2 steps are required:
Retrieve the node which should be moved and store its ID (the id member of the JSON response)
Edit the parent-to-be node (aka. the new parent) via a PUT request which contains the ID of the node:
{
"children":{
"child1":{
},
"child2":{
},
"child3":{
},
"41e666ff-0997-4ee0-9eb8-b41319f9f403": {
}
}
}
