What I would like to learn more about is what does the community really need from the product? Do you require paged result sets, or is it only a workaround to reduce the data set so that a list can be more performant?
Regarding improving performance or adding paged results, which lists are we talking about exactly (thanks Mark Saunders for listing a few already)?
- workflow process history
- others?
The following idea is pointing here: Provide users the ability to manage long lists in the CME using pagination.
