Just reporting this for posterity, I don't actually think it's that big of a deal. Google search reports 10 results per page, whereas we currently report 50 results. How often do you go beyond page 5 when reviewing a Google search? If there are that many results, you should refine your search.

However, it's useful for people trying to read everything in order, or skipping back in time.

And I think we can support it efficiently/reliably. The trick is to use the URIs themselves as the position markers.

Fixed in 2949829c30d35f92ab0de5c1c90778ed46eddd7f. There are still some quirks remaining, but they should be opened as separate issues.
