The <<issues>> macro does not respect the sort order of the query. (BB-4116)

Listing items from the Issue Tracker using the available issues list macro does not fully support the query syntax. Specifically, the sort order is not honoured.

The following code on the wiki will list the issues in order of most recently modified instead of by priority (greatest to least):
{{

{\\ <<issues ?status=open&status=new&sort=-priority list>>\\ }}

}
