Before going to far with pagination, maybe get Jani to recap the
difficulties he saw at the time that led him to propose the simpler
approach.

I can think of a few issues, but I don't really know if they are
blockers.
- the result set is going to vary dynamically as messages are added and
  removed from the database

- As far as I can tell, there isn't really an easy way to jump to page n of the results.
