Comment (by funkybob):
Personally I think it wouldn't hurt to have a helper for the specific case
of altering the page number _only_.
In a prior project we ended up needing 4 different querystring
manipulators [and I'm sure there could have been more].
One would output the original, less any listed keys, plus any specified
keys _overridden_ in value.
One would just add new values.
One would return the original with only the listed keys.
A final just updated the page number.
This still doesn't cover, for instance, when you want to add a second
value to an existing key... or.... well, given it's a multi-dict, the
options are endless.
So, to reiterate: A _simple_ helper for helping with pagination, which is
a problem almost everyone encounters, would be good.
A general purpose querystring manipulator? Leave that to 3rd parties.
