Bug Description
Hello dear OpenStack dashboard folk:
Pagination info at top and bottom of any horizon table. For instance, by default, you typically limit table size to 20 but only display that there are more than 20 returned entities at the bottom of a page. GOOD UX DESIGN PRINCIPLES REQUIRE THAT YOU DISPLAY THIS AT TOP AND BOTTOM OF A PAGE. And that you be able to go to the next "n" entries from the top or bottom via a navigator button.
*(Yes, I yelled.)*

Hi David,
Thanks for the passionate statements about the pagination design in horizon. I think there are a lot of UX improvements that need to be made to pagination, including this one.
You will notice a range of pagination features depending on which set of data you are looking at. There are a number of bugs reported on this. Here is one that includes the fact that the "More" button should really be "Next". It also refers to a bug around needing to allow users to select how many items per page the table is showing within the table itself: /bugs.launchpad .net/horizon/ +bug/1212174

I think this addition would ease the pain a bit of scrolling a number of items and then having to scroll all the way back up the list for pagination, but it does not solve this issue.
Best,
Liz
