Martin has been interested in this for a while. See his post, dated
10/30/06 "pagelist range problem" and the link to his site, quoted below:

Yeah, I actually prototyped some stuff for this (by
creating a skip argument to pagelists) a while ago and
did not really like the results. It is a tricky issue
and it seems like there has to be a better way.
You can see my ugly prototype here:

I thinkt that I mentioned in a previous email that I
would need to be able to do math on a wiki page for
this to be more generic. Maybe instead we could come
up with some special pagelist variables that would
have the numbers already calculated for us? Something
like {$$nextpagecount} {$$prevpagecount}. I really
haven't thought about this much though, so I don't
even know if this makes sense.
With java I used to use the DisplayTable tag which had
powerfull paging abilities, but even it did not get
things quite right. It still felt like a hack. It's
not an easy problem.
