"This would be backward incompatible, but I'd be surprised if
it would cause much trouble. Although it's so stated in the
manual, I think it's unintuitive for function writers that
firstobs() and lastobs() can give you observation indices that
are outside of the sample passed by the caller, and therefore
inaccessible.
Any support/objections?"
As one of those function writers who found it unintuitive, I'd be in favor of this.
OTOH, now that I know how to work around it (thanks again Allin!), keeping them unchanged
wouldn't be a big deal.
