(Sidenote: A couple of things to keep in mind is (1) a template author is always free to do advanced sorts of groupings using (:if:) conditionals, as we have been doing before now, and (2) I still consider pagelist templates to be a somewhat advanced feature for authors, so it's okay if things are a little cryptic at times.)

I think additional directives will make pagelists easer to use. But I'd prefer to not use (:first:), (:last:) etc, and instead go with something like (:pagelist-first:), (:pagelist-last:). It's a bit longer to type, but you won't be doing it that often so I don't see it as a big problem. What you gain is clarity - you won't start wondering what (:first:) would do when not related to a pagelist. (I'm ignoring that the templates can also be used with searchresults)
