/**
* An iterator-like interface to conveniently move through chunks of data. The
* idea is that a Pager works with a read Command. The read command
* returns a large amount of data and the client wants to work with chunks
* of it at a time. So the Pager is created on the command and each call to
* next returns the next chunk of data. This is done completely disconnected.
* No cursor is maintained between calls to #next.
*
* TODO - This is very preliminary. We need to look at this interface
* in the context of disonnected scenarios such as a web app. The Pager instance
* will probably be saved in session so it must be very light and cannot
* reference a connection. Also, we probably need to define a factory or add a
* method to set page size.
