Absolutely not, in fact the minimum requirement is quite barebones.  See http://www.loc.gov/standards/sru/companionSpecs/baseProfile.html   and look at level 0.  Most likely we would want to support at least level 1.  Certainly not level 2.

That's for CQL.   

For SRU ...

Note that the paging would be a function of SRU, not CQL.  SRU minimum conformance, while not easy to explain in a paragraph (standards mumbo jumbo), is just as simple as CQL   What you describe, "a  relatively simple query/filter language that would then be combined with  paging ..."    would be good enough.
