Description

The table control doesn't allow for the user to specify whether the default sort field should sort in ascending or descending order.

The default behavior currently is ascending. Allowing the user to specify which sort order they want to have as a customization parameter will deliver a better user experience. (refreshing the browser, for example, forces the user to flip the sort order back to descending...if that is their desired order).

Research direction

Start by locating the table control and its default-sort customization options, then trace how the initial sort direction is selected. Add a customization parameter for ascending or descending order and verify that the chosen direction remains effective after refreshing the browser.
