Sorry, Baptiste, but you fundamentally misunderstood how the news sorting
worked (and how the DB sorts by default).

It would've worked by using the "Number". If there was no number, then it would
*seem* like it was sorting/ordering from oldest to newest, but really it would
be sorting from oldest modification to newest modification (which is typically
how RDBMS systems like MySQL/MariaDB/PostgreSQL sort when no "order by" is
specified). It's is a subtle distinction, but it's an important one to keep in
mind. 

Anyway, I'll get bug 42973 moving along shortly...
