Unable to sort pending review table by Creation time

[fcrozat]

It looks like some recent update / rewrite in UI dropped the ability to sort the pending review table using the different columns.

I'm not longer able to sort it by Creation time

That's correct, the old table implementation was client side, and got too slow with the amount of data we have to handle these days. The new, faster implementation, will require sorting to be done server side on SQL level.

[fcrozat]

We might not need to allow columns sorting but in that case, the default should still be "creation" time (the current sorting is a bit strange, having "obs leap" at the top)

[kraih]

The current default sorting is based on priority, which is important for reviewers.

[kraih]

The obs#leap is mostly meaningless. That was a temporary fix for old data affected by a race condition in the cleanup code that mostly involved Factory to Leap requests. Just ignore that, once the requests are reviewed you won't see it again.

[kraih]

If sorting is particularly important for any existing workflows, please let me know, and i'll prioritise this feature accordingly.

[fcrozat]

Well, if we can get rid of the obs#leap one, we don't need custom sorting.
