Description

When using pagination with the list_detait.object_list generic view, the following variables are added to the context:

previous 
next
page
has_next
has_previous

and perhaps others. Yet, I don't see this documented anywhere. These are all methods of the Page object, and the generic view docs do say that page_obj is added to the context.

If this is legacy behavior that will be removed, I'd really like to know so that I don't use them, and so that I explicitly use the page_obj methods.

Yep, these are legacy and hence not mentioned: ​http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/views/generic/list_detail.py#L67
