I need to create a new Image dataset. I want to retrieve the records in
reverse date order (LIFO). I was going to do a backwards chain read.
Someone told me that a reverse chain read was not efficient.

For other design reasons, I've decided to use a composite Omnidex key,
but I'm curious if the above is true. If so, Why?
