Need a better approach to pagination

Summary: The Comics Space is illustrating that the showSome mechanism just isn't good enough for general pagination. In particular, the page needs to be in the URL, so that I can reload to that point.
This is most obvious when doing Add Title -- it then reloads that letter, and I have to "More" to the right point in the list.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to redisplay starting at the newly-added title.
