The template "LoadFeed" feature has an "infinite paging" option. This allows Facebook-like dynamic loading of paginated items where new items get appended to the bottom of existing list of items (as opposed to clicking through a pagination control).
This "infinite paging" feature would be an excellent "pager" control option for templates. Since there is already a solution in place for feeds, could the same mechanism be adapted and added to the "pager" as an alternative to clicking through paginated results?
