Normally Filters are evaluated before the version counting. There was some 
issue that was fixed recently that changed this behavior specifically for 
ColumnPaginationFilters and friend... Lemme see if I can find that.

Hey Christophe:

Sounds like a bug.  My understanding is that the regardless of filters, max
versions should be respected (Yes, we should have a specification but we do
not have one here).
