I went ahead and tried testing a few more cases with the patch, and
everything seems to work as expected.

I did skim through the code -- I'm much less familiar with this part of
the system -- and I did not see anything that I would consider "obvious
to correct" from my perspective.

So I will continue to go with what I said above: no objections on the
use case perspective, but I defer to others on the code.

One question: if I were to make a custom multirange type (e.g. let's say
I use "inet" to make "inetrange" and then a "inetmultirange") will this
method still work? It seems so, but I wanted clarify.

Thanks,

Jonathan
