Pagination as a MUST criteria

[clausmullie]

I think pagination should be as a MUST criteria.

I think in certain cases pagination is a MUST to ensure data access (ie very large data sets).

However, in cases where there is a small dataset or a user expects to see everything at once, pagination will add some overhead and complexity without adding much value

So the qualifier for datasets exceeding 1000 records still feels good.

If we agree that datasets with more than 1000 records become difficult or impractical to access without pagination (freezing/crashing/etc), then implementing pagination could be made a MUST requirement.

Otherwise, it may be kept as a best practice

Pagination is a well-known pattern used - both server and client side
