Oh yes. Well, there is a lot of fine-tunning to do but I think that
would be covered by A.1 and the binary_op expression would have at
least two locations begin/end pointing to X and r. If we are able to
print ({break;}), in the example I gave earlier, then we will be able
to print nice ranges most of the time.
