hum, well... it's quite late for me to change this.

here's what i propose: i replace the range with a spin-button in expert mode
(which is still easily available for diskdrake). That way it won't
break documentation, and you should be able to find it.

would that suit you?

PS: at last, i've got through the most important bugs and features, so
i can start having a look at other stuff. The one who complain out
loud may get some changes :)
