This design should be influenced by how it's implemented.

One implementation that could be nice is that each of the keys that can be requested - next_url, total etc - maps to an async def function which can do the work. So that expensive count(*) will only be executed by the async def total function if it is requested.

This raises more questions: Both next and next_url work off the same underlying data, so if they are both requested can we re-use the work that next does somehow? Maybe by letting these functions depend on each other (so next_url() knows to first call next(), but only if it hasn't been called already.

I think I need to flesh out the full default collection of ?_extra= parameters in order to design how they will work under the hood.
