Enhance bulk browsability of issue index
Description
The default pagination setting is nice but sometimes you want to have more (way more) at once than a dozen items.
Proposal
Any or all of:
- allow for adjustable page size
- add a
Show more
row that loads a pageful of results and appends it to the currently displayed ones - maybe even allow for
Show all
, with some smart lazy loading scroll trickery (as is sometimes done for pages which contain heavy images, where a placeholder takes the space so that scrolling is correct but loading them right before they come into view), which would present things size-wise (especially regarding scroll size and select-all checkbox) as if they were loaded but lazily loads items as needed
Use cases
- a user wants to find if a new issue is a possible duplicate before creating it, but search can only be done on generic terms, so he has to scan through loads of issues, which is better done with a scroll wheel than endlessly reaching for pagination, waiting, and repositioning.
- a user wants to bulk updates more than 30 issues. This gets tiresome to paginate and redo the action for each page. Even if selection were to persist across pages (which it is not and probably should be existing as another issue) the previous case applies.
