Description
The latest specification of Thing Description of a TDD introduces pagination. Even if it used as a convenient way to return a set of TDs, it might as well be used as a return type of one Property or Action affordance. Currently, we could cover this use case using the streaming API. However, you can't really control pages from the streaming API ( you cannot seek a specific page).

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing streaming API and how it represents sets of TDs, Property affordances, and Action affordances. Define how pagination and seeking a specific page should work for these cases, then document the required API behavior and validation criteria.
