Description
The ellipses.js plugin is deprecated because it should be built in DataTables 1.10.
"Note that DataTables 1.10 has this ability built in. As such, this plug-ins has been marked as deprecated, but may still be useful for if you are using an old version of DataTables."
But me (and others) haven't found the ability yet to change the gap between the number of pagination buttons in DataTables 1.10. Am I missing something?
If the ability is not built in, can someone show me a workaround solution (or head me in the right direction) to gain control over the following:
Change this:
Previous 1 2 3 4 5 ... 10 Next
into (for example) this:
Previous 1 ... 10 Next
Hope someone can help me out.
Thanks in advance!

Research direction
Start by reviewing the deprecated ellipses.js plugin and the DataTables 1.10 pagination implementation to determine whether the built-in behavior exposes control over the gap between page buttons. Compare the current output with the two examples in the issue. Done means the requested control is available or the supported workaround is clearly documented.
