	Yeah, good idea. :-)

	This works well for editusers, and probably would also work well for
groups and products, since people are usually coming in to edit a
specific group or product, and thus know its name.

	Yeah, for consistency, this might be the best choice, if there are more
than THRESHOLD items.

	I think it should be an option on the page itself. "Display X number of
items."
