Pages should show pagination instead of just "next" and "previous"

Please give a quick overview of your product feature request or feedback and note who in your org is affected by this issue [ex. agents, admins, customers, etc.]. (2-3 sentences)

When there are a lot of posts on a thread there isn't any pagination.  It just says "Previous" and "Next" with left and right arrows.

What problem do you see this solving? (1-2 sentences) 

If the thread is very long, I don't know exactly how long.  Plus, you have to click "next" or the right arrow multiple times to get to the end.  Is it 2 pages or 10?  There's no way to tell.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool? What happened? How often does this problem occur and how does this impact your business? (3-4 sentences)

This is a daily issue with longer threads.

Are you currently using a workaround to solve this problem? (If yes, please explain) (1-2 sentences)

There is not a workaround available unless you happen to have a permalink stored for a more recent reply.

What would be your ideal solution to this problem? How would it work or function? (1-2 sentences)

Currently Zendesk has 30 replies per page.  I'd like to see two changes to make this easier:

-page numbers at bottom so you know where you are in the list
-a way to go both a specific page and the most recent entry with one click
