FA2 assumes maps will be missions, so it always includes Waypoint=, which obviously isn't needed for mods. But, full functionality (for mission makers writing AI) would dictate that adding a Waypoint= option should be there...
(One problem with FA2 was having to manually clear fields, since it always tried to put something in each one, which what made the Waypoint= thing a pain.)
Anyway, everything else that's there is also used by the game's stock AI file. Even though Droppod= doesn't do anything, and no one can figure out what Group= does...
It think it is a good idea to maintain the properties ordering as a convention - the same that's used in the stock AI file. I like finding the Name= listed first and the Script= and Taskforce= listed last, etc
