Apart from the possibility of using a web part of the list (so you can both
have a special View designed for the web part restricting the number of
items AND specify a small area on the page for the web part to take up), I
don't know of any way to do this. [and that probably wouldn't be too
satisfactory.]
Looks like a (complicated) programming amendment to me rather than an
out-of-the-box function that requires setting something in the UI.
