Description
Attempting to navigate to paginated states of theme results (e.g., https://wordpress.org/themes/tags/right-sidebar/, and https://wordpress.org/themes/browse/popular/page/3/) results in a 302 redirect to the series root.
This should instead return the correct paginated state.

This did work previously, and has since broken. It's currently a critical issue, and we can't wait on an ethereal timeline for a backbone/JS solution.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at in that changelog, but intentional or otherwise, this needs fixing.
It was previously the case that it was possible to request and return paginated states of these archives. That's now not the case. That functionality needs to be restored.

instead then.
We don't support pagination on the current-generation theme directory, and no links should exist to it.
We may add pagination in the future, when/if the theme directory gets re-engineered.

Ah, so these should 404, not 302.
In an ideal universe, but if links exist in the wild as you suggest, directing to the index is the best user experience here.

Gah. Yes, but this is really bad. Can we up the priority on the JS fix stuff? OR, support pagination here?

Both are super-low priority, and realistically will never be supported unless the directory has a new UI and backend added.
I'm somewhat confused, as the themes directory has no pagination. It's an infinite scroller.
