JQuery .each() backwards

I'm using JQuery to select some elements on a page and then move them around in the DOM. The problem I'm having is I need to select all the elements in the reverse order that JQuery naturally wants to select them. For example:

<ul>
   <li>Item 1</li>
   <li>Item 2</li>
   <li>Item 3</li>
   <li>Item 4</li>
   <li>Item 5</li>
</ul>

I want to select all the li items and use the .each() command on them but I want to start with Item 5, then Item 4 etc. Is this possible?

I prefer creating a reverse plug-in eg

jQuery.fn.reverse = function(fn) {       
   var i = this.length;

   while(i--) {
       fn.call(this[i], i, this[i])
   }
};

Usage eg:

$('#product-panel > div').reverse(function(i, e) {
    alert(i);
    alert(e);
});
