Matrix parameters. Query parameters are not part of the REST concept by definition.

I'm using matrix parameters for any filtering of collection resources myself. This has the benefit of working when accessing subresources too. This is less interesting for paging data, but handy for other types of filtering. Sadly, Jersey has less than optimal support for matrix parameters unless they occur on the last path segment (
http://java.net/jira/browse/JERSEY-408). It's workable as is though.

How would you recommend requesting paged data on a GET, then?
