That is definitly another possiblity. I figured mine was easier on the end user since you can still use any kind of collection you want, and then just specify the total size of your results. I use hibernate for my data layer and almost all results are returned as a normal list, so I would have to convert that list to an implementation of your interface to get it to work, which seems like more effort. I've been using my method now for a solid week and its been working great. Truly to switch to server paging the only thing you need to give the displaytag with my patch is the object containing the full size of the list... which ought to be simple to obtain.
