Top Changers should show (and sort by) something more useful than rank-change

Details

Knowing that a topcrash increased in rank by 200 doesn't really tell me much. An increase from #223 to #23 is much more important than an increase from #423 to #223. Instead, it should probably sort by increase in percentage of total crashes. That is, if a crash increases from 2.5% of total crashes to 3.5% of total crashes, that's a 1%-of-total increase.
(In reply to comment #0) In the meantime to fixing this... The other piece of context next to the arrow is % and %diff. Sorting the %diff column will give you a sense of the biggest changes.
When 1.8 is released, Socorro will feature Change in Rank and Current Rank values for trending top crashes.

Based on your description, I don't think the patch in bug 519423 fixes this bug.

Explosive addresses this and Top Changers is kinda useless anyway.

The reason it's useless is in the summary of this bug. How does Explosive differ from what I asked for in this bug? If it's similar enough, should we just remove Top Changers?

There's a "diff" column in the main "top crashers" report, and it seems to have what I want. I can't find an "Explosive" report in crash-stats. Is it this? https://wiki.mozilla.org/CrashKill#Reports_.26_Tools https://wiki.mozilla.org/CrashKill/Plan/Explosive
Sorting by "diff" means sorting the top 300 crashes (by total) by their diff. Which isn't quite the same as showing the crashes with the top 300 diffs, but it's close enough.
Filed bug 910059 for removing Top Changers.

@Jesse -- explosive crashes are presented in their own report. It landed this morning, and is unlinked in the UI for a week or two while we verify it against production data.
