Yes, that's a true error, giving a one-dimensional indexation range for a two-dimensional object. As for your other cases, good catch! These are now fixed in git: the ones that should work do work, and the strange ones that shouldn't work now flag errors. But I plan to take a deeper look into the relevant code to ensure that there aren't any other bad cases lurking somewhere.
