Hi, could you give an example of what you're talking about?
As far as I can see, Paginator *never* converts its arguments to a list:
In [8]: paginator = Paginator(Game.objects.order_by('id'), 2)
In [9]: paginator.get_page(1)
Out[9]: <Page 1 of 5>
In [10]: paginator.get_page(1).object_list
Out[10]: <QuerySet [<Game: Game object (1)>, <Game: Game object (2)>]>
Internally it uses the name object_list, but this is just a name for any
iterable.
