Forgot to mention that I sees the issue as fundamentally distinct from 
the Mandelbrot example in the SQLite docs: it uses a construct 
-outlined in procedural statements- like:

For x in xRange
   For y in yRange
     compute something like f(x, y) -- here, y is independant of x
   Next y
Next x

Put in table form:
build a table for varying x's
build a table for varying y's
compute f(x, y) for the cross join

My issue is that yRange depends on the current x for its starting 
point, so in SQL WITH parlance, I can't have a table x built before 
entering the computation.

It must be simple but I lamentably fail to see the light.
