[Tracker-discuss] [issue228] Inefficient display of ticket content, request for improvement proposals

[roundupbug]

New submission from roundupbug <roundupbug at mailinator.com>:

Why oh why is top-posting liked so much that the default for displaying
issue content is reverse-chronological? It means that if you're looking
at a new (to you) issue with history you have to scroll down to the
bottom, read a bit (top-to-bottom like at least most western languages),
skip a bit higher, read, skip higher, read, and so on. For someone who
likes a speedy reading flow, this is truly aggravating. I daresay it
promotes not reading the entire ticket thus ensuring high likelyhood of
details being missed.

What ways of mitigating that can you come up with? Note that the issue
index comes with re-sorting options tacked at the bottom (why not the
top?) but the content view does not.
