Subject: [ruby-core:55100] [ruby-trunk - Feature #8422] add Enumerable#reverse_sort and Enumerable#reverse_sort_by


Issue #8422 has been updated by boris_stitnicky (Boris Stitnicky).


-1, feature creep
But I'm for defining `reverse!` as O(1), not really reversing anything, just treating the last element as first and first as last. (I do not know how collections are exactly implemented, so I am not sure whether this is possible.)

they are better when you want descending order,
  enum.sort.reverse
does work too, but it is to slow because it needs to build that result array twice

they both can be defined just like #sort and #sort_by but negates the result of the compare block
