Description
Chronograf 1.5
- Without an option to specify the sort order for Default Sort Field, users cannot create a Top N ranking, sorted from higher to lower.
Note: IFQL only has an ORDER BY time DESC clause that is limited to timestamps. Also, by default, InfluxDB returns results in ascending time order.

Research direction
Trace where Chronograf handles the Default Sort Field and how it generates queries for visualizations. Review the stated IFQL and InfluxDB ordering limitations first; done means users can choose sort direction and create a Top N ranking from higher to lower.
