 > Fixed a bunch of bugs I found after uploading the previous patch (isn't
 that always how it goes? *sigh*). I also realized that reversing the
 overall top level items wasn't what I wanted, I wanted to just reverse the
 items on that one page so that's been fixed.

 I just tested the comment paging in trunc. It works as expected without
 paging. With paging I would prefer to sort ALL comments first and then do
 the paging. Just reversing the items on one page is not very intuitive
 (for me).

 If a user checks to sort new comments first he expects to have comment
 9,8,7,6,5 on page 1 and 4,3,2,1 on page two.
