I'll just add a note that defining __getslice__ is not necessary to support slicing (in fact it's been deprecated since Python 2.0). The modern way is to have your __getitem__ check if the argument passed to it is an instance of the builtin `slice` type. (You probably knew that already, but your wording above is a bit ambiguous.) Incidentally, what's that '__slice__' thing you're checking for in https://bitbucket.org/bbangert/webhelpers/changeset/556b55e75dd6#chg_webhelpers/paginate.py_newline215 ? docs.python.org has no knowledge of it.
