The most complex case is probably this one: https://latest.datasette.io/fixtures/compound_three_primary_keys?_next=a%2Ch%2Cr

Here's the SQL for that page: https://latest.datasette.io/fixtures?sql=select+pk1%2C+pk2%2C+pk3%2C+content+from+compound_three_primary_keys+where+%28%28pk1+%3E+%3Ap0%29%0A++or%0A%28pk1+%3D+%3Ap0+and+pk2+%3E+%3Ap1%29%0A++or%0A%28pk1+%3D+%3Ap0+and+pk2+%3D+%3Ap1+and+pk3+%3E+%3Ap2%29%29+order+by+pk1%2C+pk2%2C+pk3+limit+101&p0=a&p1=h&p2=r

```sql
select pk1, pk2, pk3, content from compound_three_primary_keys where ((pk1 > :p0)

(pk1 = :p0 and pk2 > :p1)
  or
(pk1 = :p0 and pk2 = :p1 and pk3 > :p2)) order by pk1, pk2, pk3 limit 101

Where `p0` is `a`, `p1` is `h` and `p2` is `r`.

The alternative would be to have a `?_previous=x` token which can be used to paginate backwards in reverse order, but I think this would be confusing as it would result in ""hit next page, then hit previous page"" returning you to a new state which features rows in the reverse order.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",672421411,"Support reverse pagination (previous page, has-previous-items)",
