Hi Robert,

I have the exact same question, after seeing OGC-API client in QGIS only requesting 100 features, instead of paging.

I managed to get paging work (in combination with 'within current view') using PyQGIS partially (no apparent caching or use of ID's, QGIS always requesting/paging ALL features within the view),see

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/49404

Not sure if this is helpful, I hope someone really into the API will follow up
