Within PV markup you are exactly correct.  But if I was writing my own
markup such as (:pagelistnavigator:) that ran after pagelist and placed page
numbers and etc. then it certainly makes sense to have it available "after a
pagelist."  That's what I'm referring to.  If those pseudo-variables are
available after pagelist has finished processing (in another markup
function) then that would be great, but in that case I would need to know
how to access them...
