Those are great ideas! Pagination could be easily extracted from core as-is.
(That's what I did with its unit tests before I refactored them.) Users
should be warned that it has poor test coverage and that it's not going to
be maintained. And as for "something with a vibrant future", errfree guys
have just given me access to their will_paginate repo after we agreed to
collaborate on making the next version of the plugin. We should quickly
bring it up to full test coverage and enhance the API even further! Because
there will be classic_pagination available I will simply drop support for
the legacy API. One thing less to worry about :)
