Excellent. If this works out, there is an opportunity to merge the

'first' or 'start'?
Do we need to define what 'first' means though? I recall a dissenting
opinion on the wiki that the 'first' entry could be at either end
of the
list, which could surprise some.
Yeah, that's a good question. Maybe calling them "top" and "bottom"
would work better. Considering that the convention is to put the
newest entry at the top of a feed document, "top" might be more
intuitively understandable as being the new end. You might also
rename "next" and "previous" (or is it "previous" and "next"?) to
"down" and "up". There's SOME chance of that getting confused with
hierarchical levels, but I could live with that.
