I wouldn't change it, because that code that depends on how it works will break. And having a 1-year deprecation policy for this would be very ugly. Also, it doesn't start with "s" like srange and xsrange. Type "interval??" to see the source code of interval -- it's just a 1-line wrapper around range.
