> True in some cases. I was thinking in many cases that a user provided
function could deterministically generate a large number of ranges from a small
amount of configuration.
That's orthogonal to accepting arbitrary ranges, which doesn't seem to be
the focus of this addition. There's not really a reason to say, "we can only
have an optimization for range locality IF we restrict the number of ranges a
user can input."
