Thanks for the reply, although I think you are missing my point.
I understand how it works technically, but I think this illustrates a classic debate between developer and user/customer.
As a developer I can see the functional beauty.
As a user, I think it sucks and I don't give a damn about "session indexes". As a user I just want to see the next page of cool links. I think most people here are 'users'. So why not just have a stateless solution? (aka just linking to ..page=2 as suggested?)
