Futon's Temp View and View output automatically sets descending=true with nothing to let the user know this is the case. Expose query url in the UI to clarify.

                 Key: COUCHDB-816
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-816
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Futon
    Affects Versions: 0.11
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.6.4, Google Chrome 5.0.375.55
            Reporter: Adam Venturella
            Priority: Minor


Propose to provide feedback to the user with the query url that was used to generate the output or set Futon to output as querying a view would output. 

Additionally, clicking the chevron in the upper right of Futon when displaying a view/temp view shows the raw output, but it shows it as it would be returned by querying the view not through Futon.  In all the Futon UI has a bit of bi-polar disorder in the consistency which it displays it's information as it relates to views and temp views =)

A really fancy, definitely more work, pie in the sky solution would be to provide configurable query string options when running the view/temp view. Really though, just showing the query that was actually run to generate the results (with the query options) would be a great first step. This would expose that descending is set to true which can then be taken into account if, for example, you are writing a list.
