Pagination in the Wordpress Administration has always been a bit tedious when you have hundreds if not thousands of rows to go through.   This is no longer an issue, the WP Additions – Pagination plugin converts the pagination for a variety of panels (posts, pages, comments, users) to an ajax pagination slider.   This slider allows you to easily and quickly scroll your posts for example, getting right to what you want without the fuss.    Below is a screenshot of what the new pagination looks like.
