A PagedList has access to the DataSource that we supply to page against. Admittedly, in the current PagedList implementation, that is buried under some wrapper layers.

Some DataSource implementations may require us to clean them up when we are done with them (e.g., to avoid garbage collection issues). When we are done with a PagedList, in many cases we are done with the DataSource backing that PagedList. It stands to reason that we should be able to retrieve our DataSource from the PagedList in order to be able to clean it up (e.g., call some close() method).

Thanks for considering this!
