Adding callback / holding current pagination to $.fn.dataTable.pipeline script

I'm using the $.fn.dataTable.pipeline script (https://datatables.net/examples/server_side/pipeline.html) and am really missing the ability to add a callback and hold the pagination position on table reload. Ideally we could add similar functionality to the script as we can when using the plain ajax reload method (https://datatables.net/reference/api/ajax.reload()).

Is there any possibility we could shoehorn this functionality into the dataTable pipeline workflow?
