I don't see the reason to avoid one extra round trip for this probably rarely
used feature. I'd rather go into the direction of a fast-forward (Scale
header) to have more usage options if the clients are annoyed to query the
server and perform a jump.

Although I don't have that much problems with a list of ranges in one header
as it is now, I might get them when these relative positions are allowed as
well; The following, valid, header would give me some headaches:

Range: current+10-current+20, current-5-, current-30-current-20

Do all these 'current's refer to the position at the time of arrival of this
message, or are they to be resolved whenever one range entry is completed?
(The latter case is the one giving me headaches, because the I'd have to
handle yet another case next to 'now', 'start/end', 'abs-pos')

I know, this example does not make that much sense, but from the point of
implementation, I need to know what to do if someone found some
application...

Also, I still don't know the full code of conduct, but for a change based on
info with a certain age I'd have hoped to receive some sort of warning :)

Kind regards,
ch
