> I'm not sure about the way that order in SelectFS is handled. Naively, I
> would expect that all operations return annotations in index order or in
> reverse index order if `backwards` was called. But for example
> `jcas.select(Sentence.class).between(t1, t2).asList()` returns in normal
> order if `t1 < t2` and in backwards order if `t2 < t1`. While I this seems to
> be a nice touch from the engineering point of view, from a naive user's
> perspective, it seems somewhat surprising to me. Mind that the behavior is
> documented - still I wonder it if is a good idea. If I wanted to have the
> annotations in reverse order, I'd probably try calling
> `jcas.select(Sentence.class).backwards().between(t1, t2).asList()` or maybe
> `jcas.select(Sentence.class).between(t1, t2).backwards().asList()`.
