Well, I think right now Google's crawler doesn't successfully navigate
regionated hierarchies. Maybe that's changed since we started, but the
original reason to do the pagination was because they didn't handle
that. They said that it would be their preferred way to crawl, and we
agreed, but we need to be crawled right away, not wait for them to
implement it.
But since tiles do just consist of more links to tiles then maybe it
will work? I'd say try it out, see if a big dataset gets crawled all
the way down.

I think we dropped an important use-case (name the geosearch module,
oops) when we rewrote the KML regionating code. It relied on the SLD
strategy and used a simple start=index&stop=index pagination method.
I've been looking into fixing it today and ran into a number of issues.
After speaking to David I also realized that the pagination had no
functionality except that it was simpler to implement. (I thought this
output form was better than having many tiles, but apparently James
prefered tiles over it).
So I propose we drop everything but the sitemap and namespace indexes,
and have the network links folders temporarily link to the GeoWebCache
tile hierarchy instead?
Depending on what cholmes wants me to work on, I can focus on giving the
KML stuff in GeoServer the same functionality / restrictions that GWC
operates with. We already have tickets in jira for that.

probably did.
