Changed in revision 8428.

Fixed in revision 8429.

Removed those in revision 8430.

Since the log dialog shows the revisions from top to down, I thought
'highest, lowest' was ok.
But I've changed it according to your suggestion in revision 8431.

Sorry, but the log dialog already shows the logs by default in "reverse"
order, because that's what people expect and that's what's useful. You
don't want to see the revision 1 on top, and therefore you select the
revisions from top to bottom.

I'll do these tomorrow.

I really hope your kidding here :)
Seriously: more buttons? I think the log dialog is crowded as it is, we
really don't need any more options there.
And Lübbe, you should know better:
next time please post a separate mail for every issue. Your mail is
*very* long and discusses several issues.
After all, you yourself helped creating this page:
http://tortoisesvn.net/report_a_bug
and the fourth section there states: "Only report one problem in each
bug report".
