IMO pagination is a must, so sources shouldn't tell if they support it
or not: they must.

Regarding the flags, I think more or less the same: it is the core who
handles the flags, so it will support them.

Regarding the GRL_RESOLVE_FAST_ONLY, it is something that sources must
honour. 

So I would make this caps not optional, but compulsory.
