Right now I don't know that this is possible. Other than figuring out
some way of getting your second key to sort descending by having it
sorted ascending. Ie, if it were a timestamp, have it reefrence
something in the future, which is awfully hackish.

There *might* be a method for this with the custom correlation stuff,
but I don't know that this sort of fine grained control would be
allowed.
