For experienced users, sure, but this is an enhancement to help 
beginners who may be confused by the half-open end points.

Even non-beginners may find it nice to be able to easily see the end 
points when the step size is not 1.

If range objects had this, I'd use it in the REPL to check the end 
points. Sure, I could convert to a list and take a slice, but giving the 
object a nicer print output makes less work for the user.
