Has anyone gotten EntityQuery to work with AJAX pagination? Right now the only way I can get it to work is by putting the EntityQuery component in CONVERSATION scope.

When it isn't in CONVERSATION scope it will not work properly. I can page forward through the list and back through list. But after I leave the first page I can't ever go back to it using repeated clicks of "Previous Page" or clicking "First Page" Also, I can not access the last page of the list though repeated clicking of "Next Page" or clicking "Last Page"

In both the First Page and Last Page not displaying, I can tell from the debug statements that the query is getting executed with the correct firstResult and returning the correct data. But the page does not update.

I don't see why I'd have to put the EntityQuery into CONVERSATION scope

non working example
