One thing to keep in mind is that it does works great in controlled
environments like a local intranet. That's the kind of project I'm using

Also I've thought of the "in-page" search specifically tied to a table with
this pager plugin. I'd love to tackle something like that but I feel a
little incapable, being that I'm a PHP developer first.
