The ideal paging is paging which does not force the user to do much
manual configuration to deliver the information unobtrusively. To me,
it's paging which does not force me to scroll if I don't want to, and
which minimizes the wasted space by maximizing the number of rows to
fit into the screen. IOW, fill in exactly one full screen of data
without introducing scrollbars, and then let me choose -- "load more"
to extend the list on the current page, or go to the next page.

Thus, on each screen the number of rows of the default ideal view can
be different, if the content above and below the table is of
different height, or if the height of the rows is different among
pages/tables.
