>>
>> 2. Change the default number of rows from 30 to 25 (related to the next

>>
>> 3. Replace the input field in "Number of rows" with a dropdown
>> containing preset values 25/50/100/250/500. Selecting a value would
>> immediately have an effect. I never felt the need to display, say, 37
>> rows in a page. This flexibility harms usability.
>>
>> 4. Remove the "Show" button and the Start row dialog. I rarely have to
>> change the starting row value. Arrows and page selectors are sufficient
>> to navigate (not mentionning Search).
>>
>> Comments are more than welcome.

> I agree with changes you've proposed.

Me too.
