[drupal-devel] hard coded page sizes

[David Reed]

Thanks Moshe,  yep, that would do it for me.

So the consensus is a new "admin_page_size" variable with no UI
interface?  Correct?

I guess the next question I have is that when I looked at the existing
code of the 16 instances of admin type pages that I found they are not
all using the same hard-coded page size.

6 were using 50
6 were using 30
1 was using 25
3 were using 20

So do we create multiple variables?  By size range?  By module?  By ???
