Amen! Is there any chance of getting gt/lt() back in? My main
arguments are:
a) the same as above: working with variables is easier than when using
selectors.
b) having to use slice() removed the symmetry which gt/lt() had with
their selector counterparts. e.g. $("...:lt(3)") ==> $
(...).slice(0,3). Whereas $("...:gt(3)") ==> slice(4) ==> the off-by-
one there is particular inelegant, IMO.
