If you go down that route you may also create a "end" parameter:

(:pagelist .... start=... end=... :)

for maximum flexibility.
and it may not exclude count=xx..yy

I prefer the term "start" over "first" or "skip".

I noticed that pagelist.php has already got variables $pagecount,
$groupcount, $grouppagecount. Are you going to make them global and
available as page variables? I tried and with little effort had
pagelists diplaying pages 1-20, 21-40 etc.

But count= xx..yy , start=nn , end=mm will be a much easier syntax.
