--- Comment #1 from Ryan Sleevi <sleevi@google.com> ---
I'm going to close this as WontFix, for two reasons:

1) This is documenting an existing, implemented behaviour in a number of UAs
that dates back to 2011

2) The choice of Quota over Range was made to prevent callers from draining the
entropy pool, which is a concept specific to certain cryptographically strong
random number generators. In this regard, Quota (as in, a fixed resource) seems
more appropriate than Range (as in, exceeding an index)
