No.  Say I have items dated from 1990 to 2007, and there's conveniently
enough to have exactly one page per year.  If I sort them in descending
order by date, then page 1 is 2007 and page 18 is 1990 - but that makes no
sense to the average user, so I really want to have 2007 be page 18, and
start my display at page 18.  I can't really see a simple way to do it, so
I'll have to start looking at the external paging documentation.
