Full Pager: The ellipsis ("...") button does nothing

Problem/Motivation

When there are a sufficient number of pages, the full pager displays an ellipsis button ("...") right before the "next>" button. This button highlights when you hover over it, but clicking it does nothing. It should jump forward to the next group of pages. For instance, if the current group of page displays pages 1-5, clicking on the ellipsis should jump to page 6 so that pages 4-8 are visible in the pager (with 6 in the middle).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Navigate to a page using a View with the full pager. The View must have many pages of information.
  2. Hover over the ellipsis button ("...").
  3. Click the ellipsis button.
  4. The ellipsis button highlights like other buttons, but it is not clickable.

Expected Result
The ellipsis button jumps to the first page in the next group and the next full group of pages is displayed

    I tested this on Drupal 10.1.x, standard install using the steps in the issue summary. i was able to reproduce the problem.

    Yeah this is still valid. Can we just drop the ellipsis entirely?

    I am not really sold on this change, I think that the point of it is a visual indication that there are more pages. I don't think it needs to do anything beyond that, and I certainly don't think it's safe to assume that whatever we have it do is what a user would expect.

    Given that the current simple visual indicator is not at all accessible, I would also support just removing it, although it is possible some sites expect it to be there right?
