Re: [aerogear-dev] Client Paging Spec: Question on the ''pagingLocation" configuration

Hi,
reading the [spec]:
```
pagingLocation: String, indicate whether paging information is sent as
query parameters (default), or on the request header.

I think we need one more config setting, to say under what specific
header the server is expecting the "query information".
I thought this
was the point of the ParameterProvider.
Like:
httpRequest.addHeader("My-Awful-Query", someValue);
// where the "My-Awful-Query" is replaced by the actual header key

Name suggestions:
-queryHeaderIdentifier
-queryHeaderName
-queryHeader

Perhaps a minor thing... but I think I don't like the 'pagingLocation'
name... if you just read that name, it is NOT (for me) clear
that this drives if the query strings is sent as a)header value or
b)appended as http query.
Yeah that is annoying, while I was implementing stuff I
had to keep
checking what that meant. We could make it a boolean
"sendPagingAsHeader" and if it is false sent them as a query. (Not a
great idea but it may be a better direction)
Any thoughts?
