I just search for the specific pull request I care about using the browsers 
search function, and I'd be doing that no matter what the page layout was 
because manually looking will always be slower unless it's somehow guaranteed 
that the specific pull(s) that you care about are always at the top (which 
obviously isn't going to happen). Having it laid out by pull request# as it 
is now seems perfectly logical to me.
