Duncan Jones commented on LANG-900:
-----------------------------------
Personally, I would err on the side of simplicity and leave the arguments as
they are. I don't think the methods would benefit from any of the functionality
of the Range class, so it would merely serve as a fancy vehicle for the
parameters.
Did you see this older mail thread about this patch? I'm still unsure of the
best approach for the ranges: http://markmail.org/message/ociheefil7mq3na7
