I agree with JoshTriplett (comment #17). Having a pager by default does seem rather more user-friendly, and an environment variable is a pretty good place to put it. This should be plainly documented in the man page, so that users who do not like that behaviour can turn it off by setting the variable to "" or "cat" or some such.
