Description db [inactive,noenotif] 2011-11-12 17:14:07 UTC
It can be nice to get backlinks in descending order. Please add a
bldir param with 'ascending' and 'descending'.

Thanks.

list=embeddedin and list=imageusage are using the same code and can fixed in the same way.
Comment 2 Sam Reed (reedy) 2011-11-13 13:06:42 UTC
What is this any use for? Reversing the list client side is very trivial. What is the benefit of doing this server side? (This pretty much goes for all of these similar bugs)
Comment 3 db [inactive,noenotif] 2011-11-13 18:27:51 UTC
It is for navigation purpose. When you are at the end of the list and want back (when the list is bigger than your limit), you cannot, you have to store all previous values.

When two user working at the list and want remove the entries, the first starts at the begin and the other at the end. You can find other use cases as well.
