The only approach I can think of which might be able to handle mutability of the rows used for sorting would be to support paginating through a snapshot: provide a mechanism whereby a full snapshot of the query at a specific point in time is captured such that the user can then paginate through that snapshot.

Expensive to implement, so this would only work for situations where you can afford to spend significant storage and computation resources to keep a specific user happy.
