I'm displaying a list of articles in a page that are fetched using the Ember Data RESTAdapter. I need to implement a bootstrap'esque paginator (see: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/components.html#pagination) and cant seem to find a sane pattern for returning pagination data such as, page count, article count, current page, within a single request.

For example, I'd like the API to return something like:

{
  articles: [{...}, {...}],
  page: 3,
  article_count: 4525,
  per_page: 20
}

One idea was to add an App.Paginator DS.Model so the response could look like:

{
  articles: [{...}, {...}],
  paginator: {
    page: 3,
    article_count: 4525,
    per_page: 20
  }
}

But this seems like overkill to hack together for something so trivial. Has anyone solved this problem or found a particular pattern they like? Is there a simple way to manage the RESTAdapter mappings to account for scenarios such as this?
