Would it help to add a few more descriptions (and links) to the section
for the query method "order_by"?
http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_1_0/orm/query.html#sqlalchemy.orm.query.Query.order_by
> session.query(model.Foo).order_by(model.Foo.id.desc().
> model.Foo.id_b.asc())
Is the specification "desc()." really appropriate in this parameter list
example?

I find the detail interesting that the sort direction needs to be written
as a method call instead of passing a corresponding parameter value.

I imagine that I will need this variant for my use case of sorting
computed query fields, won't I?
