Comment:

 I'm not convinced this is something important enough that it should be
 baked into the core API.

 The current page is indisputably an issue of access -- I need the third
 page of results. Choosing 10 items per page rather than 15 or 100 is a
 matter of design, and shouldn't be (by default) exposed to the end-user.

 If you want to enable this functionality, you can implement a
 get_paginate_by() method that calls on self.request.GET.get('paginate_by).
 That means that what you describe is possible, just not baked in by
 default.
