Thanks for confirming DougS. I tried adding additional constraints to my query to try and trick it into sorting properly. Unfortunately, if you use followers.id you cannot add additional ones.
Guess I'll have to wait with publishing these components until the issue is fixed.
Looks like this is still happening btw. Both of these give me results in descending order:
<#assign query_follow = restadmin("2.0","/search?q=" + "SELECT login FROM users WHERE followers.id = '${user.id}' ORDER BY login ASC LIMIT 10"?url) />
<#list query_follow.data.items as q>
${q.login}<br/>
</#list>
<br/>
<#assign query_follow = restadmin("2.0","/search?q=" + "SELECT login FROM users WHERE followers.id = '${user.id}' ORDER BY login DESC LIMIT 10"?url) />
<#list query_follow.data.items as q>
${q.login}<br/>
</#list>
