Comment:

 While this might just be syntactical sugar, I think it has **very**
 limited use outside of date ranges. How often do you need to query for
 post IDs within a given range? What are the real life use cases for
 querying for a range of post IDs, bearing in mind that the range probably
 needs to be computed prior to the actual query.

 Querying for posts that fall within a certain date range is, as mentioned
 above, much more common, but this can still be achieved with quite a
 concise syntax:

 {{{
 new WP_Query( array(
         'date_query' => array(
                 array(
                         'after'  => '2015-01-01',
                         'before' => date( 'Y-m-d' ),
                 ),
         ),
 ) );
 }}}

 I'd like to see some more real world examples before I'm completely
 convinced.
