[issue36857] bisect should support descending order

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com> added the comment:

Sorry, I don't think this is a worthwhile API extension.  The bisect module is primarily about searching for cut points between ranges.  For your use case, consider using blist or one of the many ordered collection recipes on PyPI (for example: http://www.grantjenks.com/docs/sortedcollections/ ).
