For pagination to work, there must be a unique ordering. If the user specifies an orderby, we have no way of knowing whether it will result in a unique ordering (well, unless the field has unique=True set). The auto_pagination argument was introduced to allow the user to control the behavior. See the discussion here <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py-developers/auto_pagination/web2py-developers/nklB1tRh_zU/8mSG3fJuGKcJ> .
