Dropbox solves this by having four tabs (which are basically sort
criterias): by Popularity (i.e. vote number), Newest (by date), In Progress
and Completed.
(Actually Mozilla has the same filters and more, except for Newest)

In any case that is the base of the democracy/meritocracy: the ideas with
more votes (and hopefully merit) stand out
Of course this deprecates excellent ideas which go un-noticed because they
were poorly tagged or described.
There are no perfect systems...

That is why I suggested that the devs discussed the topten monthly so that
no single person would dismiss an idea.
If the topten remain the same because none has been added/dismissed, the
following ten should be discussed..

New ideas just need to have supporters, which means many people agree that
the idea is good...
