you can disable pagination via .ovirtshellrc

no, cause all options are pretty straightforward [1] and always available in 
.ovirtshellrc with defaults,
also the meaning of every option (except no_paging & password) can be seen in 
the ovirt-shell --help.

[1]

[ovirt-shell]
username =
url =
insecure = False
no_paging = False
filter = False
timeout = -1
password =

If I try a command in the shell such as:

for i in `seq 1 10`; do
  echo "show vm myvm-$i" | ovirt-shell -c
done

the pager is invoked for each iteration and I must press 'q' for each iteration
of the loop to continue.

It's possible.  I am using the Fedora package
(ovirt-engine-cli-3.2.0.5-1.fc17.noarch).

Ok, thanks.  Is there any documentation on the allowed options in the
.ovirtshellrc file?

Not sure what do you mean by 'broken', - i didn't hear any complaints on pipe 
yet,
can you elaborate?

btw is it possible that your ovirt-shell is outdated?, take the latest from 
pypi.

cli:autopage is deprecated, therefore ovirt-shell overriding old configuration
file with new format, you can disable pagination by 'no_paging = True' in 
.ovirtshellrc
