I see that in api_page.cpp there is a method "setNumber", which appears 
to be intended as a set active page function. I've tried calling it in 
the console but it fails (eg. 
Scripter.activeDocument.activePage.setNumber(2) of a 4 page doc). 
Perhaps it is not exposed to the interpreter?

In terms of logic, if I have understood the function correctly, it seems 
out of place. To me, setting the activePage at the activeDocument level 
seems to make more sense rather than getting and accessing the current 
activePage and then changing it from this level.
