Description (last modified by Ian Foote)

In the ​documentation for pagination, we recommend using this boilerplate:

try:
    contacts = paginator.page(page)
except PageNotAnInteger:
    # If page is not an integer, deliver first page.
    contacts = paginator.page(1)
except EmptyPage:
    # If page is out of range (e.g. 9999), deliver last page of results.
    contacts = paginator.page(paginator.num_pages)

This could be abstracted away into a simple method on the ​Paginator class, perhaps named something like results_for_page.
