Bug #2077

After selecting the "last search results" link, the pager doens't go to different pages anymore

Description
To reproduce this error, search for plots (with at least 11 results), then go
somewhere else, then choose the "last search results" link in the upper right.
Now, try the pager. Stays on the same data, even though the pager seems to move
to new pages.
There's a problem with linked URLs being too long. One idea is to encode the
URL params into a shorter version that gets decoded on the other side, probably
by <vegbank:get>. Would base64 be short enough?
the pager has been reworked so that it uses a built in form, which is created by
<vegbank:resumbitForm /> which contains all the values that are posted (or in
URL). if the combination exceeds 1000 chars, then :pager uses this new
strategy. Still needs quote escaping for values with " in them. And needs
checking about URL encodings/encoding in general. Also, would like to check
with PMark before finalizing this. Very promising though.
The problem is more than just the URL's being too long. A simple short URL
causes this too. Use the map on the homepage to get results, then choose
another, go back to the "last search results." You get the same plots, no
matter what page you choose.
Exactly the same problem.
