I think it should still work.  You can set $nopaging=true before the wp-
blog-header include or add a filter to 'query_string' that adds
'&nopaging=true' to the query string.  This will disable WordPress'
internal paging, leaving it entirely up to you.

We'll make sure your plugin will still work, although some small changes
may be needed.  I'll look into it.
