 > More broadly, if we're just doing stuff "For SEO purposes", we're
 probably doing it wrong. This really needs fixing properly, I'm afraid,
 for users as much as for search engines.

 I think you're hanging on a bit too tightly here and looking at this as an
 all or nothing approach. I think that is the wrong approach, especially
 when we are looking at complicated changes, identified in the
 conversations above (and associated tickets).

 As you mention:
 >In short, we _have_ to support pagination on themes, regardless of the
 complexity or resource cost. This is non-negotiable, as theme discovery,
 crawling and indexing is currently severely impacted.
 ...
 >And, if this isn't server-side, it won't solve the problem(s). :(

 Are we convinced that Google's indexer will not pick up the changes in the
 second wave of indexing?
