I would like to do this. The change is not as simple as one might think.
We require a code change and a LOSA to updated the existing data:

The code change is to lp-mhonarc-common.mrc:
Remove <REVERSE> <TREVERSE> from basic params
Reorder the *PGLINK content to reflect the normal direction
Change the order of $PGLINK() calls to reflect the normal direction

Deploy the code change

A losa goes to
    /srv/lists.launchpad.net/var/mailman
to issue the command to regenerate all the pages.
    mmm-archive-manager.py ALL
Wait a few days to complete.
