I'm getting mixed results with this.
When I insert the [Tree Order] Attribute into the Child Items Pane for various Items sometimes it shows a value, and sometimes it doesn't.
For the Root Folder it shows values, for the Template Folder it will not.
For a Child Item that has children it may show no value, it may show (0) (zero), or it may show (-1) - in all three cases each Item has at least one child. Sometimes it works as expected.
This does work as a Title Expression:
[Tree Order] || coalesce(': ' || [Some_Attribute], '')
This will convert [Tree Order] from a numeric value to text for the Title Expression, just don't ever sort these siblings in the Data Explorer - you'll end up with a miss-mash (best you can hope for here is an immediate Undo).

From the Help file:
Tree Order: this number value will is the position in the Data Explorer/Search pane (NULL value if sorted alphabetically)

If you turn-off Alpha Sort under Options | Tree does it satisfy the last condition from this statement - for existing Items, or only for new?
