Problem Statement

From the Page listing, we are only showing 10 types of pages that can be created. If a site has more pages/UrlMapped Content types that can be created, this list gets really limiting.
Additionally, there is no search, pagination or any way to select a type that is not part of this list.

Steps to Reproduce

With the demo site add a few content types with URL maps or just different PageAssets, until you have more than 10. You will not seem them or some others when you try to create a page.

Acceptance Criteria

Set the limit to 40, also add a pagination and/or search box to narrow the page type down. Use the same query that is used in the content type portlet to search - by name, var or id.
