We need to allow users to specify whether a range constraint involves only the value space, only the lexical space, or both. All three cases should be covered in my recent use cases exercise, though the constraint only to lexical space is a bit cumbersome, I think -- and I will suggest an alternative way to express that when I provide my own "interpretations" of the use cases.
