Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 18:12:12 UTC 
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/swift/+spec/reverse-object-listing.

Description:

Goal: Enable the ability to paginate backwards through a container listing. It's possible using the current API to paginate going forward using limit and marker. It's not possible to go the other way using end_marker and limit because the limit applies to the beginning of the listing. Another use-case for a reverse listing is getting a listing of the latest objects in a container with date-sorted log files. I propose we introduce a 'reverse' parameter to the container GET call that will query the container sorted in descending order.
