Description

Displaying a report show events in reverse order (most recent at the top).
I find this confusing because :
  1. this is the exact opposite order of how events are logged when you simply call puppet agent --test
  2. when looking at a failed report, most of the info displayed at the top are 'skipped' classes or resources. This leads to a bad user experience, having to scroll to the bottom of the page in order to find where something went wrong.

If changing the default display order is out of the question (considering some of the users may be used to this display order), how about adding an option to set the default report display order ?

I think this is an accident, there's no explicit ordering made as far as I can tell - it should be oldest first, to match the tool output.
