Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The rounds information on the review dashboard is currently disorganised and not ordered in any logical way. (And can shift around!) This is not very helpful for users and does not prove a clear overview as this view is intended to.

Describe the solution you'd like
Organise the rounds chronologically / based on status. As described by an editor:
" The most recent rounds of reviews were placed at the top, and the oldest at the bottom. So, in the example provided above, the 5s would be at the top, followed by the 4s, 3s, 2s and 1. Regarding the reviews, the oldest and completed revision request from the author was placed at the bottom and the newest at the top, right beneath the review rounds from the Associate editors. This made it very easy to quickly glance at the dashboard and understand the paper’s current status. "

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the review dashboard entry point and the code that assembles its rounds and reviews, then inspect how their current order is produced. Done means the newest review rounds appear first, with reviews ordered by recency and status as described, and the dashboard order remains stable.
