The beauty of the cursor is that it is has little to no overhead, relative to a

That is very good to hear. Thanks.
Nobody will hit next 499 times, but a lot of our users skip to the last
page quite often. Maybe I should make *that* as hard as possible. Hmm.
Issue a search with sort in reverse order, then reverse the returned list of
documents?
Sneaky. I like it. But in the end we're simply getting rid of the
"last"-button. Solves a lot of issues. If have a billion search results,
you might as well refine your criteria!
