in the mean time i did some research for other rdbms and i guess, what i was looking for was more along the lines of e.g. the row_number() function of mssql [1]. fwiw this seems like the most efficient pagination solution, assuming, of course, the rdbms implements this functionality efficiently.

actually, this functionality is most commonly implemented in a
reporting utility.  But it can be done using SQL.

Sure, there is a rownum() implementation from depesz [1] that works nice for reports.
