[development] Paging module & Clean URL's

[Dominic Ryan]

Hi All,

I am wanting to use the story module to publish articles, but I also am 
looking for the ability to paginate these articles. I was loking at the 
paging module, but the resulting URL structure is rather messy, and as 
clean URL's are one of the major Drupal drawcards for myself I'd really 
much rather not have this. I raised a feature request but was told there 
was nothing that could be done while using the in-built Drupal pager. 
Details can be seen here;

Assuming this is correct then I would be interested at looking into 
sponsoring a custom paging module to fill my requirements. I was 
wondering if I could ask the dev community about the best ways to 
approach this. In a nutshell this is what I will be wanting to be able 
to do;

- Clean URL's for each page in format of;

http://mydomain.com/articles/multi_page_article/page_1

- Compatibility with other modules (embedded links module from the links 
package for example)


Any advice appreciated
