change default bug sort order to bug number

Asked by Seth Arnold

Hello, can we change the default sort order of bugs on Ubuntu packages?

I'd like to propose that we sort by bug number as a default.

Priority isn't very useful -- mostly this brings bugs from a decade ago to the top of the list. Priorities are basically unused in Ubuntu, so I expect many frequent users need to request the bug list twice: once to load the page, a second time to click the "bug number" button on the page.

This has proven to be confusing for new team members and us old team members have been requesting the different sort order for a while just as rote.

Thanks
