Description of problem: Some data comes through to cumin with null column values. For certain tables is an error, but for others it is not. When sorting tables by columns with null data, it would be nice if the rows with nulls sorted at the end of table. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Looking under messaging is a good place to find nulls (queues, exchanges) 2. Sort in descending order by a column with nulls. Actual results: Nulls will be on top. Expected results: It would be nice to have nulls at the end, whether sorting ascending or descending. Additional info: This can be done easily in newer versions of Postgres, but in 8.1 it's difficult. We need semi-elaborate schemes using multiple queries, or hidden columns, or defined semantics for replacing nulls with zeroes, etc.
